Operating Instruction
1. Place the desoldering iron gun in the holder separately. Then connect the plug to the receptacle on the station and turn clockwise to tighten the plug nut. Check that the power supply is corresponding to the specification on the type plate and the power switch is on the “OFF” position. Connect the control unit to the power supply and switch on the power. Then a self-test is carried out in which all display elements are switched on briefly. The electronic system then switches on automatically to the set temperature and displays this value.
2. If not use for about 10 minutes ,the desolering station will be automatically into sleeping mode and the temperature is reduced to 200 C, this for prolonged the life of the suction nozzle and the heating element; Shake or pick up the desoldering Iron gun, can start the working again.
3. The display and temperature setting
. Shows the actual temperature of the desoldering tip. . Shows the setting temperature: Pressing the “UP” or “DOWN” button can
switch the digital display to the set point display. The set-point can be changed for ±1 by tapping the “UP” or “DOWN” button. Pressing the button will change the set-point quickly. The digital display will return automatically to the actual value and the iron will reach to the setting temperature quickly. . / display: Switching the temperature display from to by pressing the ” * “button and then the electronic system will display the actual temperature and setting temperature in , and vice versa. . When the actual temperature on the desoldering tip is less than the set-point, “HEAT ON” will display and make the desoldering tip heating up. . When the absolute offset is more than ±10 between the actual temperature and the set-point on the desoldering tip or the nozzle, “WAIT” will display. It means that the temperature electronic control system is not in the stable situation, we should wait a moment to let the “WAIT” disappear. . When “—–” & “ERROR” display, there may be a trouble on the system, or the desoldering iron gun is not connected to the control system correctly.
