The PCS.2000 series is a mobile SODAR (Sonic Detection And Ranging) system that measures three‑dimensional vertical wind profiles in near‑real time and, with the RASS extension, atmospheric temperature profiles. It can measure wind from a minimum height of 300 m up to 1 000 m in good weather and up to 1 500 m in excellent conditions.
The manual describes the system’s hardware components, control software, optional accessories such as waterproof enclosures, low‑power units, trailer mounts and GSM modems, and provides detailed technical parameters, data‑visualisation features, and instructions for remote operation and installation. This manual is written in Chinese.
