PREFACE Thank you very much for purchasing the JRC river radar equipment, JMR-611. This equipment is a river radar equipment designed to obtain safe operation of ships. This equipment consists of a radar signal processing unit, a LCD display unit and a scanner unit as its main units. z Before operating the equipment, be sure to read this instruction manual carefully for correct operation. z Keep this manual in a convenient place for future reference.
z BEFORE OPERATION z Meanings of Pictorial Indication Various pictorial indications are included in this manual and are shown on this equipment so that you can operate them safely and correctly and prevent any danger to you and / or to other persons and any damage to your property during operation. Such indications and their meanings are as follows.
●PRECAUTIONS● DANGER Never conduct inspection or repair work of equipment components. Inspection or repair work by uncertified personnel may result in fire hazard or electrocution. For inspection and repair work of equipment components, consult with our branch office, branch shop, sales office, or our distributor in your district. When conducting maintenance, make sure to turn the main power off. Failure to comply may result in electrocution. Turn off the main power before cleaning the equipment.
When conducting maintenance work, make sure to turn off the power and unplug the power line of the processor so that the power supply to the equipment is completely cut off. Some equipment components can carry electrical current even after the power switch is turned off and conducting maintenance work without unplugging the power connector may result in electrocution, equipment failure, or accidents. Never carry out internal inspection or repair work of the equipment by users.
Turn off the main power before cleaning the equipment. Especially, make sure to turn off the indicator if a rectifier is used. Otherwise, equipment failure, or death or serious injury due to electric shock may result, because voltage is outputted from the rectifier even when the radar is not operating. Turn off the main power source before starting maintenance. Otherwise, an electric shock or injury may be caused.
A malfunction may occur if the power in the ship is instantaneously interrupted during operation of the radar. In this case, the power should be turned on again. Normally, use the automatic tune mode. Use the manual tune mode only when best tuning is not possible in the automatic tune mode due to deterioration of magnetron. If the gain is too high, unnecessary signals including receiver noise and false video increase resulting in reduction of visibility of targets.
Take off your wrist watch when bringing your hands close to the magnetron. Otherwise, your watch may be damaged because the magnetron is a strong magnet. Two or more persons shall replace the liquid crystal monitor. If only one person does this work, he may drop the LCD, resulting in injury. Even after the main power source is turned off, some high voltages remain for a while. Do not contact the inverter circuit in the LCD with bare hands. Otherwise, an electric shock may be caused.
z Safety Cautions z Cautions for High Voltage High voltages, ranging from several hundreds to tens of thousands volts, are used in electronic apparatus, such as radio and radar instruments. These voltages are totally harmless in most operations. However, touching a component inside the unit is very dangerous. (Any person other than authorized service engineers should not maintain, inspect, or adjust the unit.
z Emergency Measures z Method of First-Aid Treatment Precautions for First-Aid Treatments Apply artificial respiration to the person who collapsed, minimising moving as much as possible avoiding risks. Once started, artificial respiration should be continued rhythmically. (1) Refrain from touching the patient carelessly as a resultof the accident; the first-aider could suffer from electrical shocks by himself or herself.
Treatment to Give When the Patient Has a Pulse Beating but Has Ceased to Breathe Performing mouth-to-mouth artificial respiration (1) (2) (3) (4) (5) (6) Bend the patient's face backward until it is directed to look back. (A pillow may be placed under the neck.) Pull up the lower jaw to open up the airway. (To spread the airway) Pinching the patient's nose, breathe deeply and blow your breath into the patient's mouth strongly, with care to close it completely.
Flow of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) A person is collapsing. A person is collapsing. - Secure the safety of the surrounding area. - Prevent secondary disasters. Responding Check for response. Call while tapping the shoulder. Listen to the appeal of the injured or ill person and give the necessary first-aid treatment. Not responding or indeterminate state If you call an ambulance, you can get instructions Ask for help.
Specific Procedures for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) 1. Check the scene for safety to prevent secondary disasters a) Do not touch the injured or ill person in panic when an accident has occurred. (Doing so may cause electric shock to the first-aiders.) b) Do not panic and be sure to turn off the power. Then, gently move the injured or ill person to a safe place away from the electrical circuit. 2.
6. Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) (combination of chest compressions and rescue breaths) a) Chest compressions 1) Position of chest compressions z Position the heel of one hand in the center of the chest, approximately between the nipples, and place your other hand on top of the one that is in position.
7.㻌 When to stop cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) a) When the injured or ill person has been handed over to the emergency services b) When the injured or ill person has started moaning or breathing normally, lay him/her on his/her side in a recovery position and wait for the arrival of emergency services. 8.㻌 Arrival and preparation of an AED a) Place the AED at an easy-to-use position. If there are multiple first-aiders, continue CPR until the AED becomes ready. b) Turn on the power to the AED unit.
11.㻌 Electric shock (defibrillation) a) If the AED determines that electric shock is needed, the voice prompt saying, "Shock is needed" is issued and charging starts automatically. b) When charging is completed, the voice prompt saying, "Press the shock button" is issued and the shock button flashes. c) The first-aider must get away from the injured or ill person, make sure that no one is touching him/her, and then press the shock button.

5.1 RADAR WAVE WITH THE HORIZON yy yyy The radar operator has a role of interpreting the radar displays to provide his best aid in maneuvering the ship. For this purpose, the operator has to observe the radar displays after fully understanding the advantages and disadvantages that the radar has.
D (nm) Height of Radar Scanner Detective Range Height of Target Figure 5.2 When the height of own ship’s scanner is 10 m for instance, (a) A target that can be detected at the radar range of 64 nm on the radar display is required to have a height of 660 m or more. (b) If the height of a target is 10 m, the radar range has to be approx. 15 nm.
5.2 STRENGTH OF REFLECTION FROM THE TARGET 5.2 yy yyy STRENGTH OF REFLECTION FROM THE TARGET The signal intensity reflected from a target depends not only on the height and size of the target but also on its material and shape. The echo intensity from a higher and larger target is not always higher in general. In particular, the echo from a coast line is affected by the geographic conditions of the coast.
5.3 SEA CLUTTERS In addition to the echo required for observing ships and land radar video image also includes unnecessary echo, such as reflection from waves on the sea surface and reflection from rain and snow. Reflection from the sea surface is called "sea clutter," and reflection from rain and snow is called "rain and snow clutter," and those spurious waves must be eliminated by the clutter rejection function.
5.3 SEA CLUTTERS yy yyy [II] Rain and snow clutter Rain and snow clutter is a video image that appears in a location where rain or snow is falling. The image changes according to the amount of rain (or the amount of snowfall). As precipitation increases, the image of rain and snow clutter becomes intensified on the radar display, and in the case of localized heavy rain, an image similar to the image indicating land is displayed in some cases.
5.4 FALSE ECHOES The radar observer may be embarrassed with some echoes that do not exist actually. appear by the following causes that are well known: [I] These false echoes Shadow When the radar scanner is installed near a funnel or mast, the echo of a target that exists in the direction of the funnel or mast cannot appear on the radar display because the radar beam is reflected on the funnel or mast.
5.4 FALSE ECHOES yy yyy [IV] False Echo by Multiple Reflection When there is a large structure or ship with a high vertical surface near own ship as shown in Figure5.7, multiple refection returns may appear on the radar display. These echoes appear in the same intervals, of which the nearest echo is the true echo of the target. Figure 5.
[VI] Radar Interference When another radar equipment using the same frequency band as that on own ship is near own ship, a radar interference pattern may appear on the radar display. This interference pattern consists of a number of spots which appear in various forms. In many cases, these spots do not always appear at the same places, so that they can be discriminated from the target echoes. (See Figure 5.8) Figure 5.
5.5 DISPLAY OF RADAR TRANSPONDER 5.5 yy yyy DISPLAY OF RADAR TRANSPONDER (SART) The SART (Search and rescue Radar Transponder) is a survival device authorized by the GMDSS (Global Maritime Distress and Safety System), which is used for locating survivors in case that a distress accident occurs at sea. The SART is designed to operate in the 9 GHz frequency band.
