WARNING
Never carry out internal inspection or repair work
of the equipment by users.
Inspection or repair work by unauthorized
personnel may result in fire hazard or electric
shock.
Ask the nearest branch, business office or a dealer
for inspection and repair.
Turn off the main power before maintenance work.
Otherwise, an electric shock may result.
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.
For operating the radar equipment in the good conditions, it is necessary to make the maintenance work as
described below. If maintenance is made properly, troubles will reduce. It is recommended to make regular
maintenance work.
Common points of maintenance for each unit are as follow:
Clean the equipment.
Remove the dust, dirt, and sea water rest on the equipment cabinet with a piece of dry cloth.
Especially, clean the air vents with a brush for good ventilation.

WARNING
Turn off the main power source before starting
maintenance.
Otherwise, an electric shock or injury may be
caused.
Turn off the main power if you need to be near the
scanner unit for maintenance or inspection
purposes. Direct exposure to electromagnetic
waves at close range in death or serious injury.
Set the safety switch for stopping the scanner unit
to the OFF position.
Otherwise, an accidental contact with the rotating
scanner unit may cause injury.

7.1 FAULT FINDING
In case of semiconductor circuits, it is deemed that there are few cases in which the used semiconductor devices
have inferior quality or performance deterioration except due to insufficient design or inspection or by other
external and artificial causes. In general, the relatively many causes are disconnection in a high-value resistor
due to moisture, a defective variable resistor and poor contact of a switch or relay.
Some troubles are caused by defective parts, imperfect adjustment (such as tuning adjustment) or insufficient
service (such as poor cable contact). It will also be effective to check and readjust these points.
Melted fuses are caused by any clear cause. When a fuse is replaced, it is necessary to check the related
circuits even if there is no trouble. In checking, note that there is some dispersion in the fusing characteristics.

7.3 REPLACEMENT OF MAJOR PARTS
CAUTION
Turn off the main power source before replacing
parts. Otherwise, an electric shock or trouble
may be caused.
Before replacing the magnetron, turn off the main
power source and wait for 5 minutes or more until
the high voltage circuits are discharged.
Otherwise, an electric shock may be caused.
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.

Parts Required for Periodic Replacement
Here are parts required for periodic replacement
Part name Interval
1. Magnetron 4000 hours
2. Motor 10000 hours
3. Fan motor 20000 hours
4. Backup battery 3 years
Replacement of magnetron (V101)
Remove the shield cover of the modulator and check that no charge remains in the high-voltage modulator
circuit. Then, remove the socket of the magnetron. The magnetron can be demounted by removing the
screws fixing it. When mounting a new magnetron, do not touch the magnet with a screwdriver or put it on an
iron plate. After replacement, connect the lead wire correctly.
Handling of Magnetron under Long-Time Storage
The magnetron that has been kept in storage for a long time may cause sparks and operate unstably when its
operation is started. Perform the aging in the following procedures:
(1) Warm up the cathode for a longer time than usually. (20 to 30 minutes in the STBY state.)
(2) Start the operation from the short pulse range and shift it gradually to the longer pulse ranges. If the
operation becomes unstable during this process, return it to the standby mode immediately. Keep the
state for 5 to 10 minutes until the operation is restarted.
Replacement of Diode Limiter (A102)(JMA-610-7)
Remove the 4 screws fixing the receiver. Remove the 4 screws fixing the diode and the limiter, and remove
diode limiter. When mounting the diode limiter, take care of the mounting direction and mount it in the arrow
direction facing it the receiver.
Connect the wiring in the same way as before the replacement.

HOW TO INSERT AND REMOVE A CARD
Insert or remove the JRC coastline ROM card, ERC card, C-MAP card and memory card according to the
procedures below.
Note: Keep a card horizontal when inserting it into a card slot. An inclined card causes a failure.
Do not simultaneously insert a JRC coastline ROM card, an ERC card and C-MAP card into the card
slot. A malfunction will occur on the display.
Insert the card into the specified slot according to the following table:
Card type Insertion slot No.
JRC card Either one
ERC card Either one
C-Map NT+ detail card Either one
Memory card Either one
Note: The Background of C-Map has been built in, don’t insert C-Map NT+ background card.
If the background card is inserted, the system will malfunction.
Insert a card into processor unit
Procedures 1 Remove the rubber packing located at the backside of the processing
unit cabinet, and expose the card slot.
APPENDIX
2 Insert the card in the direction indicated by the arrow.
3 Insert the card until the card slot's eject button protrudes and complete
the installation of a card.
Eject a card from processor unit
Procedures 1 Push the eject button corresponding to the desired card slot.
2 remove a card from processor unit
