I wouldn’t recommend using the **get-address** and **get-temp-c** nodes in the same patch. When working with multiple thermometers I think it is best to first determine the address of each device using the **example-read-address** patch (see [Multiple DS18B20 Thermometers on Single OneWire Bus - #6 by wayland](https://forum.xod.io/t/multiple-ds18b20-thermometers-on-single-onewire-bus/4317/6)). Then you will know exactly which thermometer you are reading when you use **get-temp-c**.

However, if you have to combine **get-address** and **get-temp-c** in the same patch, you can use the nodes in this xodball:  
[get-address-bytes.xodball](https://forum.xod.io/uploads/short-url/zx54UztRJ1hZLqXwIxphiF4BSQV.xodball) (19.9 KB)  
Example patch from xodball:

Don’t forget to use **request-temperatures** node to make sensors perform temperature conversion before reading temperature using **get-temp-c** node (see example-read-temp-multi-devices).
