Appendix B. Campbell Scientific File Formats
B.4 Converting Binary File Formats
Campbell Scientific dataloggers not only use the previously mentioned binary
file formats but users may also choose to use and access these binary formats
on the PC. Binary files may be output as data files to the PC by LoggerNet to
save hard disk space or to accommodate a user that is only interested in using
binary files in an application. In addition, PC cards that are written by the
datalogger will contain binary files that can be accessed directly by the PC.
Binary files cannot be interpreted through mere visual inspection. Therefore,
binary file processing tools are available to read and convert these binary data
files to ASCII text. These conversion tools are Split, View Pro, CardConvert,
File Format Convert, and TOB32.EXE. Refer to Section 8,
Working with Data
Files on the PC
, for complete information on Split, View Pro, and
CardConvert. Refer to Section 10,
Utilities Installed with LoggerNet
, for
complete information on File Format Convert.
B.4.1 Split
Split has the capability of reading TOB1, TOB2, and TOB3 files and
displaying data from those files in ASCII format. The output parameters are
user specified and Split generates a file containing the converted ASCII format
values.
B.4.2 View Pro
View Pro converts TOB1, TOB2 and TOB3 data files and generates a new
TOA5 file. Once the TOA5 file is generated, View Pro can display the
converted data. In that sense, View Pro is a software tool that combines the
conversion of binary files to TOA5 with the ability to view the data once the
file has been converted.
B.4.3 CardConvert
The CardConvert program can convert TOB1, TOB2, and TOB3 files to TOA5
file format or can convert TOA5 files to TOB1 file format.
B.4.4 File Format Convert
File Format Convert can convert TOA5, TOACI1, TOB2, TOB3, TOB1, or
CSIXML files to TOA5, TOACI1, TOB1, CSIXML, or CSV file format.
