If it is '1-wire' you might want to take a look at the Raspberry Pi
stuff on-line.  There is a 1-wire option in the config settings and I 
did a quick Google and ti is used for low-speed data like weather data.

The Raspberry Pi (RPi) is a starting at $35 computer about the size of a
deck of cards; starter kits can include the power supply, case, æSD 
memory card, etc. and the RPi at around $100.  Use your own keyboard and
mouse, connect to a HDMI monitor or composite video.  There are multiple
Pi's out there; ask if questions.
