Do you own one of these sensor platforms and you're trying to get it to spit out numbers?
I think that thing is designed to plug into a FOX G20, which is a little GNU/Linux board from the same vendor. That's not to say that you couldn't use it in isolation, maybe you could. Probably. At that point, you'd be paying for a feature and not using it: compatibility with that FOX G20 board...
But anyway, supposing you have the board and the module, then it would be easy to get the numbers out. The DAISY-7 page has code snippets. Run them on the GNU/Linux board and you'll get numbers back. You'll have technical questions--but those are easy to find answers to because they are specific. "How do I get a shell on this thing?" "How do I save a file on it?" "How do I run a python program?" etc.
