Basic Description of RDCP600 

 

The RDCP 600 is a 600kHz, medium range 
self recording Acoustic Doppler Current 
Profiler. 

It is designed using the latest advances 
within the telecom and computer industry 
and employs a high performance, low-power 
digital signal processing system, state-of-
the-art 32-bit embedded central processing 
system and Windows Embedded real-time 
operating system. 

The complete firmware in the RDCP 600 
may be upgraded by means of the MMC or 
CF slot.  

The modern processor system employs an 
easy to use graphical user interface that 
allows the user to set up the instrument 
without the need of an external computer. 

 

 
An advanced beam compensation system 
corrects instrument tilt and provides true 
horizontal current at the desired location 
even when the instrument is tilted. 

 

This feature allows the instrument to be used 
in easy to deploy in-line string moorings, in 
fixed bottom installations as well as in 
upside-down buoy deployments. 

 

 
The RDCP 600 also allows for concurrent 
measurements of multiple profile columns 
with different cell size and reference.  

This enables the user to monitor bottom 
currents as well as currents around floating 
installations without any need for post 
deployment cell manipulation. 

 

 
Data may be stored on high-capacity storage 
cards and/or sent out in real-time on RS-232, 
RS-485 or PDC-4 ports. 

 

 
Currently, the supplied MMC card stores 
512 Mbytes.  MMC cards of higher storage 

capacities that are delivered from other 
suppliers are not tested together with the 
MMC reader for use on the RDCP 600.  The 
CF can store up to 2 Gbytes.   
 

 
 
A modern Windows based post- processing 
system for PC, RDCP Studio, comes with 
the RDCP 600. RDCP Studio includes 3D 
visualization of current speed data.  

This powerful graphical presentation gives 
the user a compressed view of the current 
profile in a single picture with a quick 
overview of the current situation during the 
deployment period.
