The DAS70-AR2 Data Acquisition System is available as an option for any model of Ground Conductivity Meter that provides a digital output signal, and all models of EM61/-MK2 Metal Detectors; compatibility with first-generation EM61 systems, specifically, requires the purchase of additional third party software.

A complete DAS70-AR2 system includes an ultra-rugged, waterproof Archer 2 field computer, interface cables, and utility software with programming for data transfer and management. Software for instrument-specific data acquisition and processing is included with the purchase of the relevant instrument; optional third party applications, including real-time colour-scale mapping, can further increase in-field functionality.

The Archer 2 field computer provides several benefits for in-field operations including: real- time graphic display of collected data; high capacity data storage; internal high-sensitivity GPS receiver; micro SD/SDHC slot and intelligent, rechargeable Li-Ion battery for extended survey time; and multiple communication options.

For survey applications that include the use of multiple sensors within an array configuration (e.g. EM61-MK2A), the DAS70-ML Data Acquisition System, including a Panasonic Toughbook computer, supports simultaneous EM and GPS/RTS data collection through nine available input connections.
