Resumen

Campbell Scientific’s ST-21 is a Service Argos-certified Platform Transmitter Terminal (PTT ) that transfers data from the datalogger site to the Argos Data Collection and Location System via NOAA polar orbiting satellites. This transmitter is well suited for remote meteorological and environmental data collection applications, including mobile and high-latitude installations. The ST-21 is compatible with our newer dataloggers.

Descripción detallada

While Campbell Scientific's ST-21 Argos PTT is based on Telonics' ST-21, they are not equivalent; our ST-21 includes a case, voltage regulator, and our SDC communication interface.

Please note that when ordering the transmitter, the customer needs to provide Campbell Scientific with the number of buffers, repetition rate, decimal ID, Dex ID, frequency, and fail safe information.

To use the Argos system, you must receive formal permission from Service Argos and pay a fee. The data must be used for environmental purposes. Examples include meteorological/hydrological stations, ship tracking, volcano monitoring, and seismic data.

Platform Transmitting Terminal (PTT) Equipment

  • ST-21 Argos transmitter (includes an SC12 cable)
  • CR800, CR850, CR1000, or CR3000 Datalogger
  • 12022 antenna (includes antenna cable and mounting bracket)
  • Environmental enclosure
  • Power supply consisting of our BP12 12-Ahr or BP24 24-Ahr battery pack, CH100 or CH200 regulator, and SP10 10-W or SP20 20-W solar panel

Retrieving Data from the Ground Receiving Station

Choose one of the following methods:

  • Phone modem with MNP level 4 error correction (most Hayes-compatible modems contain this error-checking protocol; check the operator’s manual for your modem) and user-supplied communication software (e.g., Procomm Plus, Crosstalk).
  • Internet
  • Telnet
  • Email

Data Logger Considerations

Our data loggers can format the data as bits per data point, allowing the user to select the resolution used for each data point.

Enclosure Considerations

The ST-21 requires a desiccated, non-condensing environment; a Campbell Scientific enclosure is recommended. Grommets and screws are provided to attach the ST-21's flanges to the backplate of our enclosures.

  1. No, the ST-21 and the retired ST-20 are for use with the CR800, CR1000, and the CR3000.

  2. No. The ST-21 is designed for one-way communication only. 

  3. The ST-21 is not used via wire. The ST-21 is only used for one-way data transmission via radio frequency to polar-orbiting spacecraft. Limited data throughput with very low power requirements works best at high latitudes. 

  4. Data throughput is dependent on latitude. The spacecraft are polar orbiting, which creates more frequent satellite passes at higher latitudes. Each satellite pass can provide 15 to 90 data points, depending on cost.

  5. Fees are set by CLS (Argos). Generally there is a fee for each day the service is used. For details, contact Argos

  6. Email delivery or web-based access.
