VDR (Voyage Data Recorder) JCY-1900

Compliant with the latest performance criteria

In addition to the revised Voyage Data Recorder (VDR) performance standards MSC.333(90) which came into force on 1 July 2014, in line with the revised EPIRB performance standards MSC.494(104) which came into force on 1 July 2022, JRC welcomes or as we say in Japan, yōkoso, to our fourth generation VDR model, the JCY-1900. Having been involved in VDR development from the very beginning in 2001, this latest revision in the performance standards has allowed JRC to re-think, develop and design its latest model with the standard attention to detail for performance, reliability and long term competitive cost of ownership.

System operation, on a 7-inch display

Newly designed for the JCY-1900 is the 7-inch color LCD touch display which allows full system operation. Displaying various VDR alerts with detailed information, see what sensors are connected including status, view the latest recorded image data of radar and ECDIS and playback of audio tracks recorded from microphones.

Playback, ideal for crew training

JRC includes intuitive playback-software*2 that incorporates real-time monitoring functionality on the user PC. The data acquired can be displayed in both graphical and numerical format. Standard CSV (Comma Separated Values) data conversion enables easy and efficient exchange of information to shore e.g. via email. In addition, the playback-software is an ideal tool for crew training. Its ease of use and the freedom to survey a range of scenarios enhances the user’s navigation skills.

*2: Playback-software supports Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10.

Remote maintenance, closer to you than ever

The new JRC VDR has a dedicated server integrated as standard to support our JRC proprietary Remote Maintenance System (RMS) using IP-routing technology to monitor status of navigation and radio communication equipment onboard, via JRC’s FB or GX Inmarsat satellite communications systems, to establish a highly secure connection data link to the vessel. This allows a cost-effective determination of the operating status, software version numbers installed, etc., of the JRC equipment onboard whilst the vessel is at sea. Being able to diagnose a problem remotely, accurately, reliably and quickly, allows the ship owner to save one of the most precious commodities, time. JRC can make preparations at the next port for the necessary repair work, dramatically increasing the return to work status, using our comprehensive and well-trained global support network.

System

No new S-VDR regulation, yet a new model

For Simplified Voyage Data Recorder (S-VDR), there will also be the new JCY-1950*3 variant available with just one capsule, fixed or float free. JRC is a company founded on the principles of long term reliability and customer support and there are many ship owners sailing with older S-VDR makes and models that might no longer be supported. JRC views this as a duty to these owners to continue to offer an acceptable alternative solution*4.

*3: Conforming to the S-VDR performance standards MSC.493(104), which is a revised EPIRB performance standards.
*4: The type of capsule equipped as S-VDR may have limited by classification/Flag State. Please check in advance.
