Regarding the RS DMM & Linux:

I have located a 'try' tool for linux.
QtDMM and KDMM exist. Qt mentions a radio shack DMM model # in blurb.

The Qt flavor in the blurb has a recording feature for exploit.

http://www.mtoussaint.de/qtdmm.html

"The recorder features manual
   start, scheduled start (at a given
   time) and triggered automatic
   start when given thresholds are
   reached.
"

Have DMM now, I will report findings.

All previous request for needed sensors to attach etc. remain valid.
The RS232 data I/we now have.  I can try to sed it into command line
existance if need be.
(no time promise I'm a HW zealot not a SW roo) I know better SW talent
exists on blinux too.
Connect DMM to the TTY?  Just serial crossover cable and SW handshaking
works for something??

What a modular world!
Be careful when you play with energy.

The following is my standard parachute rigger disclaimer, adjusted to
blinux and DMM ideas.
Be WAY carefull!!! It's your LIFE at stake. (any error can effect
quality of)
Get a molded AC cord with molded bananna DMM plug for household AC
testing!!!
DMM operator must survive test to read data! Maintaining the tools is
part of use. YMMV(covers all else)
