Temperature monitoring using TempTrax

Actually, the Ethernet version doesn't speak SNMP - just HTTP, so 
you'd have to parse the HTML you get back from the device. I just 
wrote a plugin to do this for the Model E (Ethernet version), as well
as a new plugin for the Model F (serial port version).  I've only 
tested the Model E plugin on a 4-port version, but it should work on 
the 8- and 16-port versions as well.  Both plugins should be 
available on the Sensatronics website soon, but for now can be found 
at:
