Archer-PCon provides a portable data collection solution for Campbell Scientific data acquisition systems. It consists of Juniper Systems’ Archer Field PC, Campbell Scientific’s PConnectCE Datalogger Support Software, and the hardware required to connect the field PC to a Campbell Scientific data logger.
Leia maisThe ultrarugged Archer Field PC ensures that your data is safe—even in extreme environments. With an IP67 sealed rating, it is completely sealed against dust and water. And it won’t break down or fail in extreme temperatures—it is made to operate in temperatures as cold as -30°C or as hot as 50°C.
PConnectCE software supports communications between the Archer Field PC and a Campbell Scientific data logger. The software allows you to collect, graph, and display the data logger data; set data logger flags, ports, and clock; and transfer data logger programs.

Number of FAQs related to ARCHER-PCON: 2
Yes. The Archer-PCon package includes PConnectCE software. The PConnectCE manual includes instructions for installing the software.
Data files are stored on the PDA in a binary format with a .bdf extension. When they are transferred during the hot sync process, PConnectCE converts them to comma-separated ASCII. The collected data files must be saved in the My Documents folder on the PDA; if not, the conversion process does not take place. The files are transferred to the PC in their original format with a .bdf extension.
Try copying the BDF file back to the PDA in the My Documents folder. Then perform the hot sync again. If the file has not been corrupted in the copying process, PConnectCE should find it in the appropriate directory during the next hot sync and perform the conversion.
The files are also transferred in their original format if a process other than PConnectCE transfers the file before PConnectCE is able to transfer it. To resolve this issue, disable any other processes in ActiveSync/Windows Mobile Device Center that may be transferring the file. After resolving the issue, try copying the BDF file back to the PDA in the My Documents folder, and perform the hot sync again.
