6.2  NMEA CABLE  
The JMA-1030 series has 3 channels NMEA signal input allowing connecting to navigation equipment, such 
as GPS, for own position, waypoints and speed for MARPA tracking. 
It also allows connecting a GPS compass for your heading (and MARPA tracking) and / or AIS for displaying 
targets. 
In order to use the above function, NMEA cable is required. 
・Using JRC GPS receiver, please connect NMEA1. 
・Using JRC NSK, please connect NMEA3. 
・AIS connects all NMEA port available. 
 
The data are received by IEC61162-1/2. 
Telecommunications standard    NMEA0183 / IEC61162-1/2 is not conformity at all 
Communications protocol    4800 bps, start 1bit, data 8bit, stop 1bit, With no parity

6.3  RECTIFIER UNIT 
The input voltage range is from DC +10.8V to DC +31.2V. (DC12-24V, -10%+30%).Power dissipation is 
about 50W. If ship’s DC battery power supply is not enough to the operation of this radar, we strongly 
recommended that to you use this rectifier unit.
