=head2 Plugin C<netapp>
The C<onewire> plugin uses the B<owcapi> library from the B<owfs> project
L<http://owfs.org/> to read sensors connected via the onewire bus.
-Currently only temperature sensors (sensors with the family code C<10>,
-e.E<nbsp>g. DS1820, DS18S20, DS1920) can be read. If you have other sensors you
-would like to have included, please send a sort request to the mailing list.
+It can be used in two possible modes - standard or advanced.
+
+In the standard mode only temperature sensors (sensors with the family code
+C<10>, C<22> and C<28> - e.g. DS1820, DS18S20, DS1920) can be read. If you have
+other sensors you would like to have included, please send a sort request to
+the mailing list. You can select sensors to be read or to be ignored depending
+on the option B<IgnoreSelected>). When no list is provided the whole bus is
+walked and all sensors are read.
Hubs (the DS2409 chips) are working, but read the note, why this plugin is
experimental, below.
+In the advanced mode you can configure any sensor to be read (only numerical
+value) using full OWFS path (e.g. "/uncached/10.F10FCA000800/temperature").
+In this mode you have to list all the sensors. Neither default bus walk nor
+B<IgnoreSelected> are used here. Address and type (file) is extracted from
+the path automatically and should produce compatible structure with the "standard"
+mode (basically the path is expected as for example
+"/uncached/10.F10FCA000800/temperature" where it would extract address part
+"F10FCA000800" and the rest after the slash is considered the type - here
+"temperature").
+There are two advantages to this mode - you can access virtually any sensor
+(not just temperature), select whether to use cached or directly read values
+and it is slighlty faster. The downside is more complex configuration.
+
+The two modes are distinguished automatically by the format of the address.
+It is not possible to mix the two modes. Once a full path is detected in any
+B<Sensor> then the whole addressing (all sensors) is considered to be this way
+(and as standard addresses will fail parsing they will be ignored).

+If set to B<JSON>, the values are encoded in the I<JavaScript Object Notation>,
+an easy and straight forward exchange format.
