Features
The new high performance JMR-5400 radar significantly
improves short range detection and discrimination of targets
presented on high brightness displays with intuitive icon-based
operation. The system is running on the latest JRC-designed
signal processing technology allowing radar images to
effortlessly run faster and more efficiently than ever before.

• Improved short range detection • Supports C-MAP MAX and new pec charts
• Black box design • Rainbow trails to improve visualization
• New and dedicated keyboard • New 25kW X-band scanner
• Advanced processing through ASIC • High power bird detection scanner
• Bright 19-inch display with 1000 candelas • Proven Solid State S-band scanners

Clearly identifies targets,

even the smallest ones
Stable long-range sensitivity and unparalleled close-range search
capabilities provide indispensable support during navigation.
Needless to say, the detection capability of small targets buried
in sea, rain and snow reflection clutter is one of, if not, the most
important performance requirement in a marine radar. Sea surface reflection (X-band)

With our in-house developed radar core, we can guarantee, even in bad weather,
a clear radar image with clear targets. By adding the proprietary optimization
After reflection removed (X-band)
technology to the automatic clutter removal function, near distance image
discrimination has reached a whole new level.

The accuracy of even fishing nets that stay

afloat, even with their connected state
and shape, are visible on the radar image,
something which was not possible until the
arrival of the new JMR-5400 radar.

For fishing vessels sailing in the close

vicinity of each other, such safety aspect is
of utmost importance.
Fishing nets that stay afloat are visible on the radar image
Radar trails
JRC engineers have developed several trail functions that improve the
visibility of trends of other vessels and consort of ships. The rainbow
trail displays tracks in different colors every interval. You will be able to
instantly grasp the place and time for each ship’s trail.

You can manage the trends of other vessels more flexibly, for example,
in busy high traffic areas or when a vessel is traveling at higher speeds,
Rainbow trails allows easy visualization
overviewing fishing grounds and the situation around own ship. over time

By connecting to the TT/AIS function, you can show

only the tracks you want to know. It is possible to
hide specified radar trails, making it easier to see the
Shown tracks of the target you want to watch or prevent from
overwriting by other tracks.

This can be useful during trawl net fishing when other

vessels cast the net, providing an uncluttered radar

courses by removing radar trails

TT/AIS tracking
The new radar has the ability to display 180 AIS (optional 1000) symbols and 30 (optional 100) tracking
targets with high discrimination as standard. With Application Specific Integrated Circuit (ASIC)
technology integrated and a new tracking algorithm, the acquiring and tracking performance are further
improved, realizing stable and accurate operation for target tracking, even inside cluttered areas.

The sortable TT/AIS list (for instance TCPA in descending order)

enables operators to check which vessels possibly have the
highest danger to own vessel. With ASIC integration, potential
radar echoes are detected and tracked automatically in the
background allowing immediate display of the image.

 New X-band scanner
Newly added to the lineup of the JMR-5400 is the DC-powerered 25kW
X-band scanner. Developed by JRC engineers, the newly tuned system
cuts search times to roughly ¼ compared to the previous generation.
NKE-2255

The array is slimmed down and reduced in weight and available with a 7ft, 9ft or 6ft high speed array.
The new streamlined design makes operation more wind resistant, reducing the load on the motor,
which contributes to higher reliability usage and a longer lifetime.

Bird watch scanner

The JMR-5400 is also available as a bird-watching
version. The newly designed high sensitivity 70kW
scanner complies to RED regulations. NKE-3710-8B

The new JRC bird scanner utilizes a high output S-band scanner allowing for exceptional
discrimination. The radar can detect a flock of just tens of birds at a low altitude near the vessel or a
flock of hundreds of birds at a higher altitude at open sea. Such system is extremely useful for fishing
vessels, providing better potential for a more profitable catch.

Choose your scanner

A wide range of X-band and S-band scanners are available depending on installation space and
required performance, all with exceptionally reliable target detection capabilities.

Solid State S-band

Included in the JMR-5400 scanner line up is the second-
generation, MED approved Solid State S-band scanner,
available in an 8ft and 12ft variant. The world first 8ft Solid
NKE-2632
State S-band is available in normal and high speed version.

The S-band scanner is suitable for air shipment being small and low in weight. The trusted 12ft array
provides even better accuracy in target detection. Both scanners feature common parts such as TX/RX
board and processor, allowing for a common design approach and efficiency in use of spare parts.
 Charts
The JMR-5400 supports C-MAP MAX and new pec
charts. The radar echo is displayed on the chart
and the scale is automatically adjusted to the radar
range. Naturally own ship’s track, TT and AIS tracking
and planned route are also available on screen.
Full mapping facility of the chart plotter function is
optionally available through a separately sold license.

C-MAP MAX charts New pec charts

C-MAP MAX charts require SD card (own New pec charts of Japan are pre-installed and
supply) to be inserted into the keyboard. can be activated through optional license.

Processing power
The JMR-5400 is engineered for efficiency, elevating the radar to a whole new level of performance
and reliability. Whether you are browsing through an alarm list, tracking 100 targets and 1000 AIS
targets or switching range, whichever waypoint comes next, ASIC technology processes the most
complex tasks with incredible power and speed, even if you do not need it at that moment.

Black box design

The radar processor is the heart of the JMR-
5400 and share the same simple configuration
as its predecessor. TT (Target Tracking), AIS and
plotter functionalities are integrated as standard
and are available through optional licence
(purchased separately).

User interface
The vibrant interface of the JMR-5400 is derived from the JRC MFD which has been developed to deliver
the most intuitive and integrated maritime bridge experience. The icon based navigation has simple
menus and dedicated functions, delivering a uniform man machine interface. Switching between five day/
night color schemes and 0-100 brightness steps allows you to exactly set the perfect image based on the
lighting conditions on the bridge.

The operator can create a unique main menu by selecting only the items that are preferred. Other
frequently used options such as TT/AIS listing, color and brightness and/or signal processing settings, can
be preset in a favorite menu and directly available for quick and easy operation.

Custom range selection

In addition to that standard range selection (usually between
0.125 to 96NM) we are introducing the customized range
selection tool. This allows you to input some specific ranges,
typically focused on short distance and simply delete
unnecessary ranges.

Superimposing data
The JMR-5400 is capable of placing multiple data on the radar image, such as user-created map, a
chart of a coastline and buoys, own ship’s trail, and other ship’s trails and radar trails and tracking of
objects in every display mode, including Head Up.
Choose a display
The JMR-5400 can be connected to JRC’s new 19-inch and 26-inch proprietary displays. The 19-
inch version features a high brightness display with an astonishing 1000 candelas, providing excellent
visibility. With the 26-inch HD widescreen monitor you can display additional information, such as
target tracking, AIS and a second PPI, without losing sight of the radar image.

New keyboard
A brand-new keyboard has been designed for the JMR-5400, inspired by its high-end family member
(MFD). With its new case design and narrowing down the number of buttons, the keyboard allows you
to carry out all radar operations simply using the keyboard or on-screen by use of the trackball.

Also, accessible through the keyboard is a USB slot for data

backup and a SD card for C-Map Max charts.
Upgrading our previous generation
Close to 30,000 of our previous generation radars have been sold. The new JMR-5400 is highly suitable
to upgrade existing JMA-5200 and JMA-5300 radar models onboard vessel.
