Unable to connect 1wire temp-sensors, how to configure 1wire interface?

Sacirovic

I am not able to connect any number of DS18B20-sensors (single one straight to the port or through the 1wire 8port hub).

I'm using the pinout as described on: https://www.unipi.technology/tutorial/topology-of-1-wire-network-46

It seems strange to me that even with nothing connected i see the below:

pi@unipi:/sys/bus/w1/devices $ ls
00-7a0000000000  00-ba0000000000  w1_bus_master1

The seem to be dummy devices as their id's change over time, both of them missing the w1_slave-file
it makes me think that I'm missing a configuration step, i am however unable to find any notion what i need to configure.

The UniPi M20x is corrently running Rasbian Stretch with Evok (https://github.com/UniPiTechnology/evok#testing-latest-git-versions)

Evok lists 1wire as empty but this might be because i have not configured it properly:

interval = 3          ; [s] default sensor reading
scan_interval = 300    ; [s] how often is made searching

How did you, friendly forum member, get 1wire to work?

Solved the problem, I did two things wrong:

I had enabled the 1wire-interface through raspi-config, turning this off made the sensor show up in evok
I had two bad sensors connected to the hub

Evok output:
