While trying to resolve the issue I noted that the IDE was notifying me that there were updates available for my libraries. Since I've been trying to keep them up to date to elevate as much confusion as I can I checked it out and low and behold the Dallas Temperature library had an update. Problem is, it wouldn't work. When I tried to install it, it said the
CRC doesn't match. File corrupted. This is for ver 3.7.6; and to be truthful I really don't know what to do about it or if it should be reported to someone (who)?
Meanwhile I'm not sure that is the issue or not. I know the setup I had worked on the pro-mini when I had it set up, nothing in the hardware or sketch has changed. I've tried it on the pro-mini, my trusty Uno, and the ESP. To reiterate the issue from another post briefly, If one sensor is connected it reads fine, if more than one is connected, it either reads 0deg C (32F) or "error getting temperature" But again my concern at the moment is what to do about the corrupted library
