FEATURES
SOLDERING IRON SLEEP FUNCTION
When the soldering iron is placed in the holder, the iron will go
into sleep mode after a few minutes (depending on the number of
minutes that have been programmed for this feature). The display
will show “SLP” to signify this and the temperature of the soldering
iron will ramp down to 392°F / 200°C. When the soldering iron
is removed from the holder to use again, the temperature of the
soldering iron will quickly ramp back up to the set temperature.
Note:
The unit will NOT go into sleep mode unless the soldering iron is
in the holder.
SETTING THE SOLDERING IRON SLEEP TIMER
1. Ensure the soldering iron and the hot air gun are in their respective
holders and that the main switch on the back of the unit is OFF.
2. Turn on the power switches for both the hot air gun and soldering
iron on the front of the unit.
3. With both of those switches ON, press and hold both of the
Function setting buttons (also known as the Hot Air Temperature
Adjustment Buttons) while turning ON the unit with the main switch
on the back.
4. The bottom display will show the number of minutes that sleep
timer is currently set at.
5. To adjust the sleep minutes rotate the Soldering Iron Temperature
Knob. This can be set from 0 to 30 minutes.
6.
When the number of minutes is set, press the right (▲) button and
the setting will be saved.
Note: Setting the sleep timer at “00” will turn the sleep function off and
the unit will NOT go to sleep regardless of how long the unit sits
idle in the soldering station holder. It is not recommended to turn
the sleep timer off for normal use. The use of the sleep timer will
help extend the life of the heating element and tip if the unit is left
on for long periods of time.
