Two questions:
  1) Does the datalogger's vendor document their serial protocol?
  2) Are you willing to write Java software to do it on a Mac?

Without information on how to talk to the logging device, it won't do you
any good to have a serial-port connector that can plug into it.

And even with the information about the serial-port protocol, unless you or
someone else has already written Java software for it, you'll have to do
that, too.
