JAX-9B Weather fax – compact and lightweight solution

107 mm

The JAX-9B weather facsimile receiver is
a very compact and lightweight solution,
incorporating a set of enhanced features that
allows for  exible operation.

Unique features

The received fax broadcasts are recorded on thermal recording paper,
using a thermal head with less moving parts. JRC integrated an automatic
frequency selection, allowing for optimised receiving. The JAX-9B can
receive in four di erent modes.

Flexible operation and recording system

JRC has been providing sales and support of products since 1915. Today, JRC o ers
comprehensive assistance through its organisation, in partnership with a worldwide
StarNetwork™ of over 270 fully trained and quali ed partners and agents, assisting you 24
hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year.

JRC StarNetwork™

Automatic recording All operations can be remotely controlled to automatically start
up, set parameters, receiving images, feed paper, and stop by remote signals from the
broadcasting stations. Only halftone recording is manually controlled.

Manual recording You can manually set the index of co-operation (IOC), scanning
speed, and the halftone recording. The JAX-9B automatically records the stops in this
mode.

Forced recording This is an extensive function of the automatic recording mode. The
JAX-9B can manually record while neither in automatic or manual recording mode, also
while broadcasting is in progress. Phasing is done manually. It also adopts to an unique
system to terminate phase matching instantaneously.

Timer programme recording The period of the start and stop modes, station
frequencies, and half-tone on/o are easy programmable. Whilst combined with the
fully automatic mode, and unattended, error-free operation is made possible.

Pictures of clouds can be recorded in 16 gradation levels. This digital method ensures high resolution
recording, using a proprietary system that  nely reproduces maps and latitude and longitude grids
with very  ne and accurate lines.

Fine half-tone recording

The built-in synthesised receiver is capable of setting any receiving frequency from the ten-key pad,
and is able to preset up to 90 spot frequencies in the memory. This feature is very e ective when
receiving any new broadcast frequency and changing the station frequency.

Synthesised receiver

Up to 90 channels of memory frequencies and up to 15 channels of programme lists can be printed
out on the recording paper. This function is especially useful for setting programming and checking
the stored frequencies.

Printout of frequencies and programme lists

The JAX-9B weather fax is remarkably compact and lightweight, allowing for a more  exible
installation approach in con ned spaces.

Compact, lightweight design

All received faxes can be displayed on your own PC, allowing you to view (and save) the
image before seeing the actual recorded image. This function allows you to quickly view the
image digitally, which greatly facilitates the need for immediate decisions. On top, the JAX-9B
can also be con gured for remote maintenance. JRC has developed a unique function that
is capable for remotely monitoring and analysing for any faults that may occur in the system,
allowing for prompt action and service.
