PREFACE Thank you very much for purchasing the JRC marine radar equipment, JMA-610. 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.
●BEFORE OPERATION● Pictorial Indication Various pictorial indications are included in this manual and are shown on these equipment so that you can operate them safety and correctly and prevent any danger to you and/or to other persons and any damage to your property during operation.
●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.

WARNING 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.

CAUTION The accuracy from the vectors are depending on the accuracy from the (D)GPS sensors. With longer vectors, the accuracy will be lower. The vectors are calculated with the situation at that time. When there will be some changed influence from wind, water current etc, are not shown before the vessel is influenced by this.

◆◆◆PRECAUTIONS BEFORE OPERATION◆◆◆ ■Cautions for high voltage High voltages from hundreds volts to tens of thousands volts are to be applied to the electronic equipment such radio and radar devices. You do not face any danger during normal operation, but sufficient cares are required for maintenance, inspection and adjustment of their internal components.

◆◆◆FIRST-AID TREATMENTS◆◆◆ ☆First-aid treatments As far as the victim of electric shock is not in dangerous condition, do not move him and practice artificial respiration on him immediately. Once started, it should be continued rhythmically. (1) Do not touch the victim confusedly as a result of the accident, but the rescuer may also get an electric shock.
Page 12
☆When pulse is beating but breathing has stopped (Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig. 1 (1) Tilt the victim’s head back as far as this face looks back. (A pillow may be inserted his neck.) (2) Push his jaw upward to open his throat wide (to spread his airway). (3) Pinch the victim’s nostrils and take a deep breath, block his mouth completely with yours and blow into his mouth strongly.
Page 13
☆When both pulse and breathing have stopped Perform the (Cardiac massage) Fig. 2 and (Mouth-to-mouth respiration) Fig. 1 When no pulse has come not to be felt, his pupils are open and no heartbeat is heard, cardiac arrest is supposed to have occurred and artificial respiration must be performed. (1) Place your both hands, one hand on the other, on the lower one third area of his breastbone and compress his breast with your elbows applying your weight on his breast so that it is dented about 2cm (Repeat compressing his breast 50 times or so a minutes).

OPERATION IS SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING TWO CONDITIONS: (1) THIS DEVICE MAY NOT CAUSE HARMFUL INTERFERENCE, AND (2) THIS DEVICE MUST ACCEPT ANY INTERFERENCE RECEIVED, INCLUDING INTERFERENCE THAT MAY CAUSE UNDESIRED OPERATION. FCC Part 15.21 Warning Statement‐ NOTE: THE GRANTEE IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY CHANGES OR MODIFICATIONS NOT EXPRESSLY APPROVED BY THE PARTY RESPONSIBLE FOR COMPLIANCE. SUCH MODIFICATIONS COULD VOID THE USER’S AUTHORITY TO OPERATE THE EQUIPMENT. FCC Part 15.105(b) Warning Statement‐ (ONLY Required for 15.109‐JBP devices) NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device, pursuant to part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference in a residential installation. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures: ‐ Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna. ‐ Increase the separation between the equipment and receiver. ‐Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. ‐Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help. IC RSS‐GEN, Sec 7.1.3 Warning Statement‐ (Required for license‐exempt devices) ENGLISH: This device complies with Industry Canada license‐exempt RSS standard(s). Operation is subject to the following two conditions: (1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference, including interference that may cause undesired ...
