 Explanation of Terms
NMEA0183 : NMEA stands for the National Marine Electronics Association. NMEA0183 i~ the format used
when sending or receiving depth, position, water temperature, ship speed and other
information between marine equipment.

Bubbling : The phenomenon where the image of the seabed is interrupted due to air bubbles caused by
the ship's hull or the propeller during a voyage.

Beam angle : The angle that sound waves spread out from the transducer. Sound waves spread out in a
conical manner taking the center of the bottom surface of the transducer at the apex of the
cone.

Transducer : Device that emits ultrasonic waves in water and receives the signals reflected off the seabed.
This is equivalent to an antenna on a radio.

IMO : stands for International Maritime Organization

MED : stands for Marine Equipment Directive. This is the directive for marine equipment in Europe.
This directive unifies format approval standards implemented separately by each European
country.

UTC stands for Universal Time Coordinated.

x Explanation of Terms
 1. Introduction
1.1 Function
The JFE-582 Echo-Sounder consists of a transducer mounted on the bottom of the ship's hull and a main unit
that displays information on the depth and formation of the sea bottom. This information is gained by using
ultrasonic waves sent from the transducer that are then reflected off the sea bottom and picked up again by
the transducer. The JFE-582 also has the following functions:
(1) depth alarm, (2) power fail alarm, (3) output of depth data, (4) outpu't of depth and power fail alarms.
The recorder uses 150mm-wide paper to show the previous 10 minutes, 20 minutes, or 30 minutes of
historical data. Or the paper can be stopped. One roll of paper can record a maximum of approximately 37
hours continuously. Depth measuring ranges of IOm, 50m, 250m, or 500m can be selected.

1.2 Feature
The JFE-582 features the following:

Conforms to the IMO Standard

• When the deptp becomes shallower than a previously set value, a depth alarm is issued by buzzer and
lamp.
• When power is cut to the main unit, a power fail alarm is issued by buzzer and lamp.
• Contact signals can be output for both depth and power fail alarms.
• Data on depths can be output

Ease of Use
• Knobs are used for illumination controls, allowing them to be readily distinguished from other keys.
• Independent event mark, range, and depth alarm keys for instant operation.
• Remote cancellation of alarm buzzer.

Digital Depth Display

• No need for time-consuming reading of depths using a scale against the profile of the sea floor on the
paper! The current depth can be seen at a glance.

Self-Diagnostic Functions
• Self-diagnostic functions can be selected from a menu, improving ease of maintenance.

There are no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to inspect or repair
this equipment as doing so without proper training may result in fire or
electric shock.
For internal maintenance and inspection, please contact JRC or its agent.

6.1 flegular Maintenance

The life of this equipment depends on how scrupulously regular maintenance is performed. To ensure that
the equipment is always in top condition, we recommend inspecting the equipment regularly. This will
enable you to prevent faults developing.
Carry out the inspections shown in the table below on a regular basis.

Methods of Maintenance Inspections

Turn OFF the power, then inspect the following items.

No. Item Method

1 Cleaning Lightly wipe the panel surface, keys and knobs, etc., with a dry cloth. The
plotter is particularly susceptible to soiling by carbon dust from the
recording paper. Clean off any carbon dust, then wipe the cover glass and
scale plate with a cloth dampened with alcohol.

2 Looseness of parts Check that all bolts and screws and nuts are tight. Also check that all
keys, knobs and connectors are securely in position.

3 Cable connections Check the wiring of all cables between the respective components and that
the connectors are securely connected.

4 Drive pulleys If the pulleys make any abnormal noise, the bearings may be faulty. In this
case, please contact JRC or its agent for servicing. (See the list of offices
at the end of this manual.)

6.3 Positional Adjustment for Om Depth
As the recording pen wears, the depth tends to become misaligned with the depth on the scale. If the
misalignment is only slight, you can adjust the scale up or down. However, if moving the scale is insufficient
to rectify the problem, you can adjust the position of the transmission trigger mount, as described below.
Please refer to the figure below when adjusting the position of the transmission trigger mount.

( 1) Set the draft to Om.

(2)Move the transmission trigger mount so that the top edge of
the Om recording line is aligned with Om on the scale.
(3)Restore the original draft setting.

6.4 Adjusting Recording Belt Tension

If the recording belt becomes slack, the magnet on the belt may collide with the transmission trigger
detection sensor, making a noise. Also, the characters printed on the recording paper may become an uneven
density. However, if the tension is too great, the belt will wear asymmetrically. The belt should therefore be
tensioned as described below.
(I) Loosen the two screws holding the top pulley.

(2)Turn the belt tensioning screw clockwise to loosen the belt, or

counterclockwise to tension the belt.
(3)Adjust the tension so that there is a gap of about l.5mm
between IC301 on the transmission trigger block (CP A-132B)
and the magnet (fixed with a cover of about 5mm x 5mm) on
the recording belt.
(4)After adjusting the belt tensioning screw, tighten the two
screws holding the top pulley.

Loosen these two screws to

adjust the Om depth position.

6. Maintenance and Inspection 35

 (1) Replacing Main Power Supply Fuse
One reason for this fuse blowing is a faulty cable attached to the power supply. Check the cables before
replacing the fuse, then turn the power on. If the fuse blows again, the Power Supply (CBD-1488) may be
faulty. Contact JRC or its agent.

(2) Replacing Power Fail Alarm Circuit Fuse

One reason for this fuse blowing is the input of an abnormal voltage. Check the input voltage at pins (7)
and (8) of the Interface Block (CQD-1705, TB501). Check that the voltage is as rated (24VDC) (operating
voltage: 21.5 to 31..S.VDC) before replacing the fuse. If the fuse blows again, the Transducer Controller
(CML-596) may be faulty. (See the list of offices at the end of this manual.)

(3) Replacing 12VDC Output Power Supply Fuse

One reason for this fuse blowing is an overcurrent in an external device connected to pins (1) and (2) of the
interface block (CQD-1705, TB502). Temporarily remove the cable to the external device. If the fuse blows
again, either the Transducer Controller (CML-596) or Interface Block (CQD-1705) may be faulty. Contact
JRC or its agent. (See the list of offices at the end of this manual.)

Notes:
1. This is the performance that can be confirmed on the recording paper by adjusting the sensitivity. Also, the
maximum measurable depth depends substantially on ship hull configuration, installation position of the
transducer, sea floor conditions, and sea conditions, etc. Compared with a stationary ship, performance drops off
rapidly as ship speed increases. Also, when reversing, the large quantities of bubbles from the screw will disrupt
the soundwaves, substantially reducing the depth-sounding performance.
2.0nly paper feed is stopped. The depth display, depth data output, and alarm functions continue to operate.
3. To activate the power fail alarm function, this equipment requires a 24VDC power supply in addition to the main
power supply.
4.NMEA0183 output sentence: In Vl.5, it is SDDBS, SDDBT, SDDBK. In V2.3, it is SDDPT only.
5. The combination of coating colors (Munsel N4 and N7) is the standard JRC combination.
