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.
