Eric,
 
Almost sounds like an I2Cish type of thing, like where you might need an  
open collector transisitor on your receiver (BrainStem RX) coupled to 1  wire bus 
that is pulled up with a resistor. In this case you would need an  inverter 
or replace all of that with an open collector non-inverting buffer --  this 
would of course maintain the polarity of signals received by Parallax  module and 
it should still work.
 
Now then I would think you would need to invert the 1 wire bus signal into  
the TX line on the Acroname module.
 
Does that sound right.
 
What is the parallax module doing with the wire when nothing is  happening?
Floating I presume.
 
In any case I would say you need to decouple any direct drive of the  pin.
 
Does taht seem to amke sense?
 
Ron
