6.4.3.4  Forgotten password

If you have forgotten your password, it can only be de-activated by ERSA Service. 

In such a case, please refer to the company ERSA, indicating your address, name, 

invoice and serial number of the soldering station (see type plate). The password 

lock may also be de-activated with the i-Set Tool. Please observe the corresponding 

hint at section 6.4.3 to this purpose!

6.4.4  Temperature unit

Here, the desired temperature unit, degree Celsius (°C) or Fahrenheit (°F), can be 

selected. Factory setting: “°C”

Caution! 

When the temperature unit is changed, a setup mode is 

carried out. During this time (approx. 5 sec.), the station must not be 

switched off.

6.4.5  Language selection

Here, the desired language for the menu navigation of the i-CON 1 can be selected.
Factory setting: “English”.
