4. Operating Instructions

4.1 Power On/Off

• To Power On: Short press both control buttons simultaneously.
• To Power Off: Short press both control buttons simultaneously.

4.2 Main Interface and Display

The 1.05-inch TFT color screen provides clear, real-time information:

• Actual Temperature: Displays the current temperature of the heating plate.
• Set Temperature: Shows the target temperature.
• Voltage: Indicates the input voltage.
• Heater Status: Shows if the heater is active (e.g., "加热" for heating, "关闭" for shut off).
• Output Power: Displays the current power output.
• Power Progress Bar: Visual representation of heating progress.

The device supports dual-mode display, allowing you to switch between data mode (numerical values) and curve mode (temperature waveform graph) for diverse monitoring needs.

4.3 Temperature Adjustment

• Use the left and right buttons (indicated by up/down arrows on the device) to adjust the target temperature.
• The adjustable temperature range is 10℃ to 300℃.

4.4 Settings Menu

• To Enter Settings: Long press both control buttons simultaneously.
• Within the settings menu, you can access options such as language switching (Chinese/English) and temperature calibration.

4.5 Temperature Calibration

The device supports a temperature calibration function to maintain accuracy. Access this feature via the settings menu and follow the on-screen prompts for calibration.

4.6 Applications

This Mini Hot Plate is suitable for various applications, including:

• Preheating and repair of mobile phone motherboards
• PCBA disassembly and soldering
• Liquid heating
• Lamp bead disassembly and soldering

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Ensure the device is powered off and cooled down before cleaning. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. For the heating plate, use a non-abrasive cleaner if necessary, ensuring no liquids seep into the device.
• Storage: Store the Mini Hot Plate in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use. Its compact size allows for flexible storage.
• Inspection: Periodically check the Type-C port and cables for any signs of wear or damage.
• Avoid Overheating: While designed for efficient heating, avoid leaving the device unattended for extended periods at high temperatures.

6. Troubleshooting

• Device Not Powering On:
  • Ensure the Type-C power adapter is correctly connected and providing 20V 3.25A (PD65W).
  • Verify the power outlet is functional.
  • Confirm both control buttons are short-pressed simultaneously to power on.
• Temperature Not Reaching Set Value:
  • Check the power supply to ensure it meets the PD65W 20V 3.25A requirement. An underpowered supply may limit heating performance.
  • Ensure the ambient temperature is not excessively low, which can affect heating speed.
  • Perform a temperature calibration if you suspect inaccuracies.
• Display Issues:
  • If the display is blank or flickering, try powering the device off and on again.
  • Ensure the power supply is stable.

7. User Tips

• Use a Compatible Charger: Always use a PD65W 20V 3.25A Type-C charger for optimal performance and to avoid potential damage. Using a lower-power charger may result in slower heating or inability to reach higher temperatures.
• Preheat Safely: When working with sensitive components, gradually increase the temperature to avoid thermal shock.
• Ventilation is Key: Ensure good ventilation in your workspace, especially when soldering, to dissipate fumes.
• Practice Makes Perfect: If new to soldering or rework, practice on scrap PCBs or components to get a feel for the heating characteristics and temperature control.
• Regular Calibration: For precision work, consider performing temperature calibration periodically to maintain accuracy.
