- **address** (*Optional*, int): The address of the sensor. Required if there is more than one device on the bus and index is not specified.
- **index** (*Optional*, byte): The index of the sensor. Required if there is more than one device on the bus and address is not specified. *Note this index is based on the hardware addresses of the sensor and indexes will shift when during startup a sensor is not connected.*

- **index** (*Optional*, byte): The index of the sensor. Required if there is more than one device on the bus and address is not specified. *Note this index is based on the hardware addresses of the sensor and indexes will shift when during startup a sensor is not connected.*
- **index** (*Optional*, byte): The index (0-based) of the sensor. Required if there is more than one device on the bus and address is not specified.
*Note this index is based on the hardware addresses of the sensors and the order can be different if any sensors are changed/added/removed.*

- **resolution** (*Optional*, int): An optional resolution from 9 to 12. Higher means more accurate.
Defaults to the maximum for most Dallas temperature sensors: 12.
