INTRODUCTION TO THE JBC ADVANCED
SYSTEM
The exclusive and new JBC microprocessor
driven heating system ensures such a fast heat
recovery that it enables performing at lower
temperatures than before and improving a 40%
the efficiency of the station.
SLEEP FUNCTION
Tool in sleep mode
One feature of the Advanced series is that
when the tool is placed in the stand, the
temperature automatically drops to the sleep
t e m p e r a t u r e . T h i s f u n c t i o n i s p o s s i b l e
because of the quick response time that
a l l o w s t h e u s e r t o s w i t c h f r o m s l e e p
temperature to working temperature very
quickly. Thanks to the sleep mode, oxidation
levels at the tip are much lower and therefore
the tip life is extended 3 to 5 times.
T h e s l e e p f u n c t i o n p a r a m e t e r s c a n b e
modified using the station program.
In order to take full advantage of the sleep
mode and as a security measure, it is
necessary to place the tool in the stand
when it is not being used.
The tip life is directly related to the
temperature and time . With a greater
temperature for a longer time, the tip duration
is reduced in an exponential form.
Due to this, it is advisable to keep the soldering
iron in the support at sleep temperature (200ºC
approximately) to increase the tip life.
Hibernation mode
Apart from the "SLEEP" mode the AD 2950 features
a hibernation mode.
In this mode the tool cools down to room
temperature but it goes back to working
temperature as soon it is picked up.
A tool can enter into hibernation mode after
entering into the "SLEEP" mode. Changing into
hibernation mode starts from the moment you are
in "SLEEP" mode.
Hibernation can be modified using the «SETUP»
sub menu. See page 42.
Changing the handpiece's cartridge
With the Advanced system, the cartridge can
be changed quickly, without turning off the
station, so you have two soldering irons in one.
Here is what to do to change the cartridge:
1 - Place the handpiece and remove the
cartridge.
2 - Place the handpiece on top of the new
cartridge, press it slightly down and remove
the handpiece.
