Label	Arguments	Options	Comments
new address	a	<address>	change address
new contact mode	c	<contact>\t<mode>	set contact NO/NC mode
new discontinuation	d	<discontinuation>	set the timeout value after which the slave consider itself to be abandoned by the server
new buzzer mode	j	<mode>	buzzer activated or not
new limit	l	<device_address>\t<limitH>\t<limitL>\t<resolution>	set alarm boundaries
new mode	m	0\t<mode>	slave enable/disable

		<device_address>\t<mode>	OW device enable/disable
new firmware	n
new recess	r	<recess>	scan-rate interval
new timestamp	t	<timestamp>	only if RTC defined (used to synchronize clock)
new wire	w	0	scan the lines and return the number of OW device found

		<contact>	contacts active or not
		<device_address>	OW devices active or not
query firmware version	n
query recess	r		scan-rate intervall
query status	s	0 (zero)	global status
		<contact>	contacts status
		<device_address>	OW devices status
query timestamp	t		only if RTC is defined
query value	x
query wire	w	0 (zero)	tell the number of OW devices connected
query wire	w	<device_address>	return the OW SID of desired address

Options	Comments
<address>	0 to 65535
<contact>	1 or 2
<device_address>	3 to 152 (but address 3 is reserved for DS2417)
<limitH>	Higher alarm limit (integer from -128 to +127)
<limitL>	Lower alarm limit (integer from -128 to +127)
<mode>	0 [disable] or 1 [enable]
<now>	0 or 1 (line where the device is connected ⇔ contact-1)
<recess>	0 to 180 [seconds]
<resolution>	decimal resolution (0→0.5, 1→0.25, 2→0.125 and 3→0.0625)
<suid>	identification of iButton on 8 char ['0-9'-'A-Z'-'a-z'] like 0A0b0009
<timestamp>	0 to 9'999'999'999 [seconds since 1.1.1970]

These files can be found on the Micro-SD of a NiX.

This file contains the minimal configuration with which the NiX cans run autonomously.

ADDRESS	1
BAUDRATE	9600
BUZZER	0
DISCONTINUATION	180
ENABLE	1
RECESS	30

This file contains the link between the iDevice's address, the iDevice's now, the iDevice's SID and the iDevice's identification(suid).

Field Name	Description	Example
address	Address of the iDevice	47
now	The identification of the line where the device is connected	1
sid	Sid of the iDevice	281006FF01000099
suid	The identification of the iDevice	0AbCd77a

This file is created when we do the command Nw0, NiX1 search in all now for connected iDevices.
