I recently added support to Lady Heather for reading environmental sensors. The code supports up to four values (humidty, pressure, and two temperatures). The sensor can be used either the main input device or in conjunction with any of the input devices that Heather supports.
There are a gazillion and 3 environmental data loggers out there, but 99+% just log data for later analysis (no good) or use custom programs or smartphone apps. There seem to be very few devices that can be controlled by an arbitrary program.
The code currently supports the USB-xxx devices from dogratian.com or the LFSxxx devices from LookingForSolutions.com. It also has support for a yet-to-be-built-by-me device that is customized for Heather/metrology.
I am looking for recommendations for other devices to support. THE requirement is that they can provide measurement data, in real time, via a serial (or virtual serial port) or Ethernet interface. They CANNOT be dependent on some proprietary driver or interface or program or app. They need to be able to either stream readings (best) or be polled for readings by sending some command to it. If the temperature sensors could be remotely mounted, that would be a big plus... that way you could monitor a couple of points inside a piece of equipment.
So far the Dogratian USB-PA seems to have the best bang for the buck. It's main issue is that the readings get updated every five seconds. 1Hz would be a lot better.
