The system is fully integrated with the SODAR system PCS.2000. For compliance with national frequency regulations radar transmitters are offered at 915 and 1290 MHz. For long range measurements a 482 MHz version is available.

The system includes separate transmit- and receive parabolic antennas of 1.8 m or 2.4 m.

Optionally, for harsh conditions, the antennas can be heated.
