OWMON(1)                     One-Wire File System                     OWMON(1)

NAME
       owmon - Monitor for owserver settings and statistics

SYNOPSIS
       owmon -s owserver-tcp-port

DESCRIPTION
       See the file man1/description.1so.

   owserver
       owserver (1) is the backend component of the OWFS 1-wire bus control
       system.  owserver (1) arbitrates access to the bus from multiple client
       processes. The physical bus is usually connected to a serial or USB
       port, and other processes connect to owserver (1) over network sockets
       (tcp port).

       Frontend clients include a filesystem representation: owfs (1) , and a
       webserver: owhttpd (1).  Direct language bindings are also available,
       e.g: owperl (3).

       There are also many light-weight clients that can only talk to owserver
       (1) and not to the 1-Wire bus directly. They include shell and multiple
       language modules (perl, Visual Basic, python,...)

   owserver protocol
       All the owserver (1) clients use the owserver protocol for
       communication. The owserver protocol is a well documented tcp/ip
       client/server protocol. Assigned the "well known port" default of 4304.

   owmon
       owmon (1) is connects to owserver (1) and displays the bus structure
       and contents of the interface, statistics and settings directories.

SPECIFIC OPTIONS
   -s
       TCP port or IPaddress:port for owserver
       The tcp port (IP:port) for the "upstream" owserver.

EXAMPLE
       If owserver (1) is started:
       owserver -p 4304 -d /dev/ttyS0
       owserver on tcp port 4304 and connects to a physical 1-wire bus on a
       serial port.

       You can monitor owserver (1) with
       owmon -s 4304 /

PLATFOMS
       owmon (1) is a pure Tcl/TK program and will run whereever Tcl/TK is
       available (Windows, Macintosh, Linux, Unix)
