Most data loggers can just be programmed with some Windows software. Unfortunately they usually need Serial or USB ports, which only sometimes work under Wine. What usually works is Windows XP under Virtualbox, but this is not as fine-grained as having apps run under Wine, and the Windows are not managed by the X11 window manager.

Good serial communication would be vital for this task.
