7 Connection and operation 1. Loosen the tip setscrew, insert the soldering tip and tighten the screw; 2. Connect the ground wire to the setscrew; 3. Connect the power supply to the soldering station and switch it on. Note If the screen displays sen-err when it s plugged, it means that the soldering tip is not properly fixed. Please fix it correctly. Default settings Standard temperature unit C Standard temperature 300 C (Default) Sleep mode temperature 200 C (Default) Adjustable temperature range 100 C ~ 400 C (Max) Basic control Display Press When the power supply is connected, the Soldering Station shows its logo, the version number and the start display in this order. Ver2. 01 Automatic calibration Press Press the button B in standby mode to enter thermometer mode 24 In thermometer mode, press both buttons at the same time to enter the calibration mode V Cal_V Display shows when calibration is complete. 24 Display shows when calibration failed. Cal_ Long press any button to exit thermometer mode. 7 / 12

8 Heating up Press 300 When pressing the button A in standby mode, the Soldering Station will heat up to the preset temperature. 300 When OLED displays as picture, it means that the Soldering Station is ready for soldering. In operation mode, holding both buttons for 3 seconds will return to standby mode. Temperature adjustment In standby mode, press the button A will enter preset temperature. Temperature down: In temperature adjusting mode, hold the button A for at least 2 seconds, until in the display appears the desired temperature. Release the button A when the expected temperature appears in the display and the Soldering Station will automatically adjust to it. Temperature up: In temperature adjusting mode, hold the button B for at least 2 seconds, in the display appears the desired temperature. Release the button B when the expected temperature appears in the display and the Soldering Station will automatically adjust to it. Note: When screen displays arrow pointing to left or right (t or u) which means the adjustment has already reached its upper/ lower limit temperature, settings will not be saved when power is off. If the temperature is stable for 60 seconds, the Soldering Station automatically moves to the Feedback mode. The temperature status is checked each 5-8 seconds. On the right part of the display will appear the following message: Arrows up --> heating Arrows down --> cooling Horizontal lines --> temperature stabilized 8 / 12

9 If you do not use the Soldering Station for more than 3 minutes (standard setting) while it is in use mode, then the sleep mode will be active. Temperature is automatically set to the preset sleep temperature. As soon as the Soldering Station is used again, it will change automatically to the use mode. Temperature will automatically heat up to preset temperature (300 C in default settings). If the Soldering Station is not used while in sleep mode for longer than the IDLE_TIME setting, then it will Press change to the standby mode. Note: IDLE_TIME can be set in the config.txt file with a PC. System parameter Parameter Explanation Default Adjustment range T_Standby Standby mode temperature 200 C 100 C ~ 400 C T_Work Operating temperature 300 C 100 C ~ 400 C Wait_Time Time from operation mode to sleep mode 180 sec. 60 ~ 9999 sec.

T_Step When preset 1,each step will progress in ,2,5,25; when preset 2-25, each step will progress according to settings Turn_Off_v When operation voltage is lower than 10V 9-12V default voltage the Soldering Station will return to standby mode TempShowFlag Temperature unit selection C 0 is C, 1 is F ZeroP_Ad Changing the tip Temperature calibration parameter, automatic adjustment No manual setting 1. Before changing the soldering tip, disconnect the power cable from the Soldering Station. 2. Loose the setscrew of the soldering tip. 3. Pull out the tip, replace with another one. 4. Tighten the screw. Note: If the Soldering Station indicates "sen-err", the soldering tip is not installed properly. 9 / 12

10 Optional soldering tip (not included) 10.0 TS-D24 TS-K TS-BC2 TS-B2 Soldering iron tip maintenance Before switching off, wipe the tip s soldering side with some solder. Do not leave the tip in high temperature for long time, which may cause it to burn out. Do not push too hard while soldering. That could damage the soldering tip. Do not use rough material or files to clean the tip. If the soldering tip is oxidized, it will stick no tin. You can use sand-paper (600 ~ 800 grain) to clean the tip with Ethanol or Isopropyl alcohol. Heat the tip up to 200 C and use immediately some tin to avoid oxidation. Do not use Flux that contains high chlorine or acid, use only resin based flux Changing default settings Firmware update Changing boot-up screen Connect the Soldering Station to the PC using the USB cable, in the OLED will appear "CONFIG" and you will be in the setting mode. Open the config.txt file from the USB drive, set the default parameters. Visit and download the latest Soldering Station firmware to your PC. Connect the Soldering Station to your PC with the USB data cable, meanwhile, press the button A on the Soldering Station to enter the DFU mode. If "DFUxxx" appears in the display, then you will be able to see a virtual disk with an eight-character serial number in your PC. Copy the hex firmware to the root directory of that disk. When the extension of the firmware changes from hex to rdy, disconnect USB and the firmware is upgraded. Create your own 96x16 pixel image in.bmp as monochromatic Bitmap, copy this file in the USB drive of the Soldering Station, change the name to "LOGOIN"; Note: When the LOGOIN.BMP exists in the USB drive, the boot up logo will use this file. If the file doesn t exist, the default logo will be used instead. 10 / 12

11 Trouble shooting Problem No display Every time when installing a new tip, the temperature status displays random numbers The Soldering Station restarts automatically Soldering tip is heating up and cooling down simultaneously Recommended possible solution Check: Is the cable broken? Check: Is there any data in USB mode? The device checks the status, it is normal Check 1: Is the power source properly plugged? Check 2: Is the voltage too low? (it has to be set up in the config file) Check 1:Is the tip being used for the first time? Check 2: Is the power cord in loose or defective contact? Check 3: Is the tip overheating? Set the temperature in appropriate level Check 4: Is the soldering tip clean? Read the section "soldering iron tip maintenance" OLED shows Warning! Check 1: Is the tip overheating? Is temperature higher than the maximum operation temperature When temperature is again lower than maximum operation temperature, the warning message will disappear and it will return to operation mode OLED displays High-Vt Check: Is the voltage too high? (over 24V) OLED displays Sen-err The soldering tip does not stick any solder The Soldering Station returns to standby mode during operation Check 1: Is the tip properly installed? If yes, then replace the soldering tip The soldering side of the tip is not applied with solder properly Lack of flux during operation Tip touched materials like plastic, silicone oil or other chemicals Using impure solder or solder that contains low proportion of tin Check: Is the voltage lower than minimum (10V) Make sure that the voltage is always over 10 V. 11 / 12
