What are you doing for the data logger?


I use the PC's serial port to monitor the state of the wireless
receivers,
Java to poll the port, send the alerts and control the webcams, and a
database to log the data. It's very DIY.


So you have your PC on all the time. I'd definitely want to avoid that if
possible.


If you are doing it in Java then why not buy a board with JVM on it. about
50 quid, (prob less now). It comes with a one wire port for your
interfacing.
