Appendix B. Campbell Scientific File Formats
B.1.2 ASCII Printable
Files in ASCII Printable format have the following features:
• Data are printed in fixed field widths.
• The length of each line of text in the file will not exceed 79 characters.
• Data from multiple arrays can be included in the file.
• A two-digit column number and sign precede each value in a column.
An example of a printable ASCII file:
01+0112. 02+2002. 03+0007. 04+1456. 05+43.000 06–.99619
01+0115. 02+2002. 03+0007. 04+1456. 05+43.000 06–.99619 07+0.0000 08+0.0000
09+0.0000 10+0.0000 11+0.0000 12+0.0000
01+0108. 02+2002. 03+0007. 04+1456. 05+44.00 06+.06979
01+0112. 02+2002. 03+0007. 04+1456. 05+44.000 06–.99756
01+0115. 02+2002. 03+0007. 04+1456. 05+44.000 06–.99756 07+0.0000 08+0.0000
09+0.0000 10+0.0000 11+0.0000 12+0.0000
B.1.3 TOACI1
This file format was originally introduced to support data coming from table-
data dataloggers. This format has the following features:
• The file includes a header that contains the following:
• The file format type, the station name, and the table name.
• The field name for each of the data values. (See TABLE B- for
field name suffixes.)
• Each record in the file is assigned a timestamp and record number. The
record number is a logged sequence number that is assigned by the
datalogger.
• The data values are formatted as comma-separated text suitable for
importing with little modification into most spreadsheet and database
applications.
• Each TOACI1 file contains data from only one table.
An example of a TOACI1 file with a header and data values:
"TOACI1","gold","one_min"
"TMSTAMP","RECNBR","temp_degf_AVG","meas1","meas2"
"2001-12-30 19:16:00",18002,69.05,3000,1500
"2001-12-30 19:17:00",18003,69.06,3001,1499
"2001-12-30 19:18:00",18004,69.06,3002,1498
