Section 8. Working with Data Files on
the PC
After data has been collected from the datalogger, you need a way to analyze that data.
LoggerNet provides two tools to do this.
View Pro is a file viewer that provides a way to look at the collected data. It will open data
files (*.DAT) saved in a variety of formats including files from mixed-array and table-
based dataloggers. It can also be used to view data from a LoggerNet database table
created with LNDB. View can also open other CSI file types (*.DLD, *.CSI, *.PTI, *.FSL,
*.LOG, *.CR2, *.CR5, *.CR1, *.CR3, *.CR8, *.CR9). Once a data file or database table is
opened, data values can be graphed in several different formats including Line Graphs,
Histograms, XY Plots, FFTs, and Rainflow Histograms.
Split is a tool that is used to post-process collected data from either mixed-array or table-
based dataloggers. Split can create reports by filtering data based on time or conditions.
It can generate statistics, perform calculations, reformat files, check for data quality (limit
testing), and generate tables with report and column headings. It can also handle the time
synchronization necessary to merge up to eight data files.
Data stored on a compact flash or PCMCIA card must be converted prior to analyzing it
on your computer. CardConvert is a utility used to retrieve binary data from a compact
flash or PCMCIA card, convert it to an ASCII or binary file, and save it to disk.
8.1 View Pro
8.1.1 Overview
The View Pro button on the LoggerNet toolbar brings up View Pro. This
program can be used to open data files (*.DAT) or other CSI file types
(*.DLD, *.CSI, *.FSL, *.LOG, *.CR1, *.CR3, etc.). View Pro can easily
handle files up to 2 Gigabytes in size. View Pro can also be used to view data
from a LoggerNet database table created with LNDB.
Once a data file or database table is opened, data can be printed or graphed in
several different graph types including Line Graphs, Histograms, XY Plots,
FFTs (Fast Fourier Transforms), or Rainflow Histograms as appropriate for the
data type. (Note that these graphical windows are only available for *.DAT
files and database tables. Other file types are viewable only as text.)
Since View Pro is primarily a file viewing utility, a file cannot be edited or
saved using this program.
View Pro can also be run as a stand-alone program by using the Windows Start
Menu and selecting Programs | Campbell Scientific | LoggerNet | Data | View
Pro or by using Windows Explorer and double-clicking on the ViewPro.exe
file in the C:\Program Files\CampbellSci\View Pro folder. A desktop shortcut
can be created by right-clicking on this file in Windows Explorer and choosing
Create Shortcut .
