| Manufacturer | Japan Radio Co., Ltd. (JRC) |
|---|---|
| Manufacturer country | Japan |
| Model / catalogue item code | JAX-9B |
| Product type | Marine weather facsimile receiver with thermal recorder |
| Condition | Refurbished |
The JAX-9B receives radio facsimile broadcasts from shore stations and prints the received images on thermal paper. Its synthesized receiver selects the station frequency, while the recorder reproduces the chart line by line. Bridge teams use the resulting charts to review synoptic weather, forecast areas or sea conditions, depending on what the station broadcasts.
Automatic recording uses broadcast control signals to start, synchronize and stop the printout. Manual recording lets the operator select the index of cooperation (IOC) and scanning speed. Forced recording is useful when the broadcast is already under way. Timer programming supports scheduled recording windows.

The supplied front view shows the JAX-9B badge, LCD, numeric keypad, IOC and SCAN controls, paper compartment and recording paper outlet. The keypad and display are used to select operating parameters. The paper feed mechanism draws the roll across the thermal head to create the printed chart.
JRC lists the NBA-5143 AC power rectifier, NAW-60 whip antenna and JQD-69C connection box as options. The 7ZZNA4016 PC connection kit is required for the optional 7ZZNA4017 image display kit. Confirm the required accessories separately when requesting a quotation.
The JAX-9B is used in bridge or radio installations equipped to receive marine weatherfax. For an existing installation, identify the receiver, antenna and feedline arrangement and confirm which shore-station broadcasts cover the intended route. Station schedules and reception conditions vary by operating area.
| No printout | Check whether paper advances and run the recording test described in the JRC manual. Verify that the correct thermal paper is loaded in the orientation shown in the manual. |
|---|---|
| Weak or noisy chart | Confirm the station frequency and broadcast window. Have the antenna feedline and connectors inspected if reception remains poor. |
| Distorted chart | Compare the selected IOC, scan speed and phasing with the station parameters and the instructions for the selected mode. |
| Missed timed broadcast | Check the receiver clock, programmed recording window and the station schedule. |
Use the manual for the paper replacement and self-test procedures. Have a qualified technician isolate power before servicing connectors or opening the unit.
For a replacement, send front and rear photos of the installed unit, including its nameplate, mounting arrangement, power connector and antenna connection. Identify any external receiver, AC rectifier, connection box or PC kit you intend to retain. For a spare part or paper order, include the exact accessory code where available.
Send the required quantity and your delivery city and country for a shipping quotation.
