Mitutoyo digital indicator SPC output Data Acquisition

I have some Mitutoyo Digital indicators 0.5" x 0.0001" with SPC outputs. What is the most inexpensive route to collect the data from that indicator at 1 minute intervals? (And not by paper and pencil :-) Idealy I would like the data in Excel eventually.

I have a gadget called "GaugeLink" that might do it. It's an interface box that connects to a PC's serial port, and will put the data into Excel. I have a foot pedal so that when I've got the measurement I want, I hit the pedal & it goes into the computer. You'll need a Mitutoyo interface cable. I'm not sure about the "1 minute" bit, but I'm sure they can tell you if it will do that.

The GaugeLink from

comes complete with a free software wedge program, GLWedge, that has automatic timed acquisition. It will "squirt" readings into any Windows program that has focus, as if they were typed on the keyboard.
