You want an analog -=>RS232 box to hook it up to your PC, can give you 8 inputs ;)

I did electronics at GCSE but have forgotten almost all of it now!  Will look into the chip as it seems an interesting option.  I thought about monitoring the tcouples from the pc but decided against it, I found an interface in one of the parts bins at work that would interface with the pc and give something silly 100 inputs but decided that was just a little overkill!

Will let you know how I get on!

Evilgoat:
Tis a 4 pole analog switch, you can drive it with digital inputs so you can still use a switch, this just means you'll keep the thermocouple leads short.

Have something similar (but not) in mine all done through a singl;e touchscreen. Used a laptop so the power privision is simple and removable.

Software is all my own and the analog units are bespoke with my own software. Seriously, PM me, doesnt cost a lot to bosh these things together and would hapilly provide one and software in exchange for other goodies. Als means you dont need to switch anything.

Sorry for taking so long to reply, the notifier thing has changed settings...
