I have finally started using this new version of tempr$, which is excellent and allows much better updating. The routine is called once every three seconds, which is ample time for the conversions, and it is all non-blocking. I use the sensor id string to distinguish between them, e.g this is in the setup:

Code: [Local Link Removed for Guests]

ext_sensor_id$     = "28db49ec00000063"
hw_sensor_id$      = "28883c18291901ce"
ch_sensor_id$      = "288978c400000006"
ret_sensor_id$     = "289764c400000013"
temp_pin           = 13 'all sensors on this pin
ret$ = tempr$(temp_pin,0) 'request all readings
the disp_temp lines are a sub that writes to a tft display. To get the sensor id strings use tempr$(temp_pin), list the result and copy it into your code.

Code: [Local Link Removed for Guests]

'===========
read_temps:
'===========
 'read and display each temperature
   local_ext_temp   = val(tempr$(temp_pin,ext_sensor_id$))
   flow_temp = val(tempr$(temp_pin,ch_sensor_id$) )
   disp_temp c4,r3,flow_temp  
   ret_temp  = val(tempr$(temp_pin,ret_sensor_id$))
   disp_temp c4,r4,ret_temp 
   hw_temp   = val(tempr$(temp_pin,hw_sensor_id$) )
   disp_temp c4,r2,hw_temp
'ask for the next time
ret$ = tempr$(temp_pin,0) 'request all readings, also once in startup
return

I'll try to include the changes also in the ESP8266
How was the implementation in 8266? That's what I'm struggling with here, and asynchronous mode would be a good solution, which unfortunately isn't available yet.

It is still not implemented in the ESP8266 and I strongly suggest to move toward the ESP32

It would be really nice to have it for the 8266.
Using an ESP32 just to read a few sensors is simply overkill.
Not to mention implementation on existing hardware.
Pretty please :P

How exactly is this supposed to work for version 1.49 of 21/03/2024 19:08? I would expect version 1.50... maybe...
Heartfelt thanks for taking the time to do this!
