#175968 - They have two eeprom locations
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Each DS18B20 has a unique serial number.

As you physically attach each new sensor, the program can write a physical location to its eeprom.

Yes. You will have to connect / disconnect / heat / cool a sensor to identify it. But this is a one-off job at installation.

Replacement of a sensor with a virgin DS18B20 will automatically detect the missing slot number. And allocate this to the new sensor.
