Setting Receiving Frequency

To receive the signal by the JAX-90, the frequency should be set This section

will describe the receiving frequency

The receiver in the JAX-90 can receive the long wave (80-160kHz) and short wave (2-

25MHz) FAX broadcasting

Each broadcasting station transmits several frequencies at a time Selection of a proper frequency affects the quality of the picture However, it is difficult to select a proper receiving frequency because the conditions of propagation vary with seasons, daytime, night, and receiving points Therefore, you should always bear in mind how to select

a proper receiving frequency

Use of TUNING Meter and RCV MONITOR

1) [TUNING] meter (Used for short wave only)

7 LED is used to indicate tuning of receiving frequency The receiver is of the

synthesizer type So, the meter does not need to be used if the receiving

frequency is known for certain

The [TUNING] meter is helpful if

identify the frequency for an external

(1) Proper tuning

The central LED islit, or adjacent

LEDs are blinking Allowable tuning range

(Three central digits)

(2) Allowable tuning range Y Z

More than one or all the LEDs ⁄

are lit

If it repeats blinking, the quality of the picture is poor because there is likely to be

fading, multi pass-echo, interference, etc

Setting Frequency

The frequency is set fill 100 Hz

digit For instance, 7305kHz is set

in the following manner:

CLR The entire display excepting the 1kHz check

Setting FAX Receive Mode

The drawing at the right shows

an example of a picture sent by a

facsimile broadcasting station

The JAX-90 facsimile can select

the receiving mode according to

the following conditions:

(1) Whether start signal is given

or not

(2) Whether phase signal is given

or not

(3) Whether black signal with

same width as phase signal

is given or not

(4) Whether stop signal is given

or not

At this time, the receiving mode

is either AUTO, SEMI-AUTO,

MANU or PROGRAM RE-

CEIVE The factors (2) and (3)

above are very significant be-

cause selection of the scan speed

and phase matching are per-

formed according to the phase

signal detected Any of the fol-

lowing receiving modes may be

selected according to the condi-

tions of the signals

Maintenance

Cleaning

The unit is designed for maintenance-free

operation So, it requires no routine

maintenance However, it is advisable to

perform cleaning to keep the unit clean

No smell or dust is yielded during record-

ing However small amount of paper

particles are produced because the ther-

mal head is pressed against the recording

paper for recording Every time replace

the recording paper with new one, clean

the following portions

1) Wipe out paper particles inside the

mechanical section

2) Wipe the edge of the thermal head

with soft cloth wet with alcohol

Replacing Recording Paper

The red END mark is applied to the end

portion (about 2 meters) of the recording

paper If you have seen it, make prepara-

tions for replacement of paper When the

recording paper reaches an end, the unit

automatically stops

(RECORDING PAPER: 6ZPTS00127)

To replace the recording paper with new

one, practice the following:

(1) Pull the mechanical switch to the

front to unlock the mechanical sec-
