, to enter the brightness setting.

2) Show the current digital display brightness level

-

.

3) Adjust the brightness level through the knob: gear 1-6.

4) Press the function key or wait for 10s to automatically save to complete the setting.

7.Standby and sleep functions

Standby function on and off:

1)Press and hold the function key till

display on LED segment to enter the standby function on/off setting:

2)Display the current setting

or

3)Adjust by knob:

or

to turn on/off the standby and sleep function.

4)Press the function key or wait for 10s to automatically save to complete the setting.

Standby function

1)When standby function is turned on, the soldering station will enter standby mode after not in use for 10 minutes.

2)In standby mode, LED segment displays

and temperature drops to 250  (482 ).

3)When any operation is detected, such as using the soldering iron, adjusting knob or pressing the function key,

it will return to the work mode.

4)When in standby mode, if no further operation is detected for 10 minutes, it will enter sleep mode.

Sleep function:

1)That short press the function key or long time in standby mode can make it enter sleep mode:

2)When entering sleep mode, screen displays

and heating is turn off.

3)Press the function key to return to normal heating work mode.

8.Temperature locking function:

Temperature locking function on and off:

1)Turning the knob to adjust the temperature to be set.

2)Long press the function key till

is displayed.

3)Now LEd segment displays

or



4)Turn the knob to set the locking function to be

or



5)Press the function key or wait for 10s to automatically save to complete the setting.

6)When the temperature is locked, adjusting the knob does not change the setting temperature, it will display

for 1 second to show that the current temperature is locked.

9.Temperature calibration
1) Adjust the set temperature to 350 ¥ (662 ) by knob and wait for 2 minutes to stabilize the temperature. 2) Use a thermometer to measure the temperature of the soldering iron tip. 3) Use a cross screwdriver to adjust the calibration hole to make the displayed temperature value equal to the measured value. For example, if the measured value is 345 ¥, adjust calibration hole to reduce display temperature 350 to 345, make the display temperature match the measured value. 4) Press the function key to complete calibration.

2.Switch on the power

After the power is on, indicator lights up, and the soldering station starts heating up according to the set temperature. After the temperature is stable, indicator flashes. Note: when not in use, please put the soldering iron on the holder. If it won't used for a while, please cut off the power supply.

3.Temperature adjustment
Temperature range: AE988/AE970200-480¥c392-896 Temperature adjusted by knob.

4.Temperature calibration
1) Adjust the set temperature to 350 ¥ (662 ) by knob and wait for 2 minutes to stabilize the temperature. 2) Use a thermometer to measure the temperature of the soldering iron tip. 3) Use a cross screwdriver to adjust calibration hole to make the measured value equal to set temperaure. For example, if measured value is 345¥
adjust calibration hole to increase it to 350, make the measured value match set temperature. 4) Temperature calibration completed.

Maintenance
In order to make this product durable, please maintain it regularly. The lifespan of this product depends on the used temperature, quality of solder wire and soldering paste, frequency of use etc. Please repair and maintain it according to specific use conditions.
! Warning
Please pay close attention when the soldering station is in use at high temperature, cut off the power and unplug the power cord after use.

Soldering iron tip maintenance 1. Set the temperature to 250 ¥ (480 ). 2. After the temperature is stable, clean the soldering iron tip with a brass wool and check its condition. 3. If black oxide is attached to it, please apply new solder (including flux) and wipe it repeatedly with a brass wool until it's clean, then apply some new solder. 4. If the soldering iron tip has been deformed, perforated or worn out, please replace it with a new one.

Troubleshooting Guide

! Warning
 When checking or replacing parts, be sure to pull out the power plug to prevent electric shock  If the power cable is damage, it must be sent to the manufacturer, agency store or maintenance personnel with the same qualification for repair to avoid accidents

Failure phenomenon

Examination
Check whether the power cord is good, or plug falls off

Dealing method
Connect the power supply well

Not working after power is on
The display shows "S-E"

Is the fuse OK
Whether the handle cable is well connected with main unit Whether the wire connecting to handle is broken
Whether the heater is damaged (the resistance of the blue lead wire shall be less than 100  at room temperature).

Figure out the cause of fuse damage: 1. Short circuit inside the station. 2. Inside the handle, the spring might meets the heating element. 3. Check whether the pin of heating element is twisted or short circuited. Even if the cause is unknown, please replace the fuse. If the fuse get burnt out again, please return the handle with the main unit for maintenance.
Reconnected
If so please replace it with a new handle
If damaged, replace the heater

The display shows "H-E"

Whether the wire connecting to handle is broken
Whether the heater is damaged (the resistance of the red lead wire shall be less than 100  at room temperature)

If so please replace it with a new handle If damaged, replace the heater

Iron tip heating is on and off
The solder won't get on the iron tip

Whether the wire connecting to handle is broken
Check whether the temperature of the iron tip is too high
Check whether there is oxide on the tip

If so please replace it with a new handle Adjust to the proper temperature Clean the oxide with a brass wool

Iron tip temperature is too low

Check whether there is oxide on the tip

Clean the oxide with a brass wool

Whether the temperature is proper Adjust to the proper temperature

The iron tip won't fit

Whether there is oxide inside tip, or Change the tip and heater soldering iron tip expands
Not original tip or not same type tip use original factory tip or same type tips

The actual temperature can't reach

Is the temperature adjusted correctly
Haven't done temperature calibration for a long time

Adjust the set temperature again Re-calibrate temperature accordingly
