Setup Mode; A) Enabling/Disabling Settings Mode - TOOLCRAFT ST-100HF Bedienungsanleitung

10. Setup mode

You can configure three different settings in settings mode:
• Programming a fixed soldering tip temperature
You can use this function when you plan to use the soldering station in a production facility and do not want other
users to change the temperature.
When the soldering station is switched on, the soldering tip will always heat up to the preset temperature. The
temperature cannot be changed using the control buttons (2) or the temperature control dial (7).
• Calibrating the soldering tip temperature
The soldering iron was calibrated to the soldering station before the product was shipped. If the soldering iron is
replaced (e.g. due to a defect), the soldering tip temperature must be recalibrated. It is also advisable to recalibrate
the temperature when using a new/different soldering tip.
A temperature measurement device that can measure temperatures of over 360 °C is required to calibrate the
soldering tip. For best results and to prevent false measurements, use a surface probe with a small measuring tip.
• Programming a password
A password is required when you want to program a fixed soldering tip temperature. This prevents other users from
changing the soldering tip temperature.

a) Enabling/disabling settings mode

• Switch the soldering station off using the on/off switch (1) ("O" = off).
• Hold down buttons "1" and "3" and switch the soldering station back on using the on/off switch ("I" = on). The firm-
ware version will be displayed.
• Release both buttons. The main settings menu will be displayed (see right-
hand screenshot).
"1-ST" = Program a fixed soldering tip temperature
"2-CAL" = Calibrate the soldering tip temperature
"3-CP" = Program a password
• Press button "1", "2" or "3" to select the corresponding setting.
• To exit settings mode, switch the soldering station off using the on/off switch.
