TimeLab can talk directly to the 512x boxes via ethernet. I've also
written some Linux scripts to capture both phase data and graphs from

If I recall correctly, you can run continuous logging from 512x boxes
with TimeLab, so it should be a good approach to get more out from your
instrument.
Yes, it will log the phase data stream and create the same set of plots
from it as with other data. I think John has mentioned some issues
keeping the connection open over long collection intervals, but I
haven't seen any issues.
However, in my Perl code I ended up increasing the TCP timeout to a
quite large value -- the data seems to be sent with varying delay and
sometimes pauses for a while, presumably while the system is occupied
doing something else. A long timeout keeps things running during the
pauses, and no data seems to be missed in the process.
