Pressing the Menu button takes you to menu 1 Pressing the Menu button will take you into the menu of the previous selected channel. Always make sure that the channel you have selected is the wished channel. The previously selected channel is shown on the display. If no channel is displayed, the changes refer to the entire device. Standby Temp. The standby temperature is a preset value to which a soldering tool is adjusted when not in use. Option Description OFF Standby deactivated (factory setting 180°C (360°F) 100-300 °C 200-600 °F Standby Temp., Individually adjustable Standby time (temperature deactivation) On soldering tools with a usage sensor in the handle, the soldering tool is adjusted to the standby tem- perature after the preset standby time if not in use. The sensor integrated in the tool detects changes in status and deactivates standby mode as soon as the tool is moved. On soldering tools without a usage sensor, the soldering tool is adjusted to the standby temperature after the preset standby time if no soldering process is being performed. Pressing the UP and DOWN buttons exits standby mode. (Not available for: WMRP, WMRT, which are controlled via a magnetic contact) Option Description OFF Standby deactivated (factory setting 2 min) 1-99 min Standby Time, Individually adjustable

ENGLISH12 OFF time If the soldering tool is not in use, the heating for the soldering tool is deactivated after the OFF time elapses. Temperature deactivation is performed independently of the set standby function. The actual temperature is indicated by ashing LED and serves as a residual heat display. The display reads „OFF“. As long as the soldering tool cools, the residual heat is displayed in the 1-channel display. Cooling also ashes in the display. For the 2-channel display, ° C / ° F ashes in the display of the corresponding channel. As soon as the temperature falls below 50 °C (122 °F), OFF appears in the display and the backligh- ting is deactivated. Pressing the UP and DOWN buttons at the same time exits OFF mode. Option

Description OFF OFF time Deactivated (factory setting 10 min) 1-999 min OFF time, Individually adjustable Window function Option 1 (factory setting): Set the potential-free switching output to ES FE. Limiting the adjustment range to ± 1-99 °C (±1-180 °F) based on a temperature locked using the „LOCK“ function. The locked temperature therefore represents the middle of the adjustable temperature window. Option 2: Set the potential-free switching output to ES rob; ES FE / rob; ES rob / rob. Starting from a set, locked temperature, it is possible to set a temperature window of ± 1-99 °C (±1- 180 °F) using the WINDOW function. If the actual temperature is within this window, the potential-free contact (optocoupler output) becomes conductive. Option

ENGLISH13 LOCK Lock for the station. After the station is locked, it is no longer possible to change any device settings. Exception 1: Fixed temperature buttons activated. Exception 2: Window function Option 1. All other settings are disabled until the station is unlocked again. Locking the station Set the three-digit locking code of your choice (between 001 and 999) and conrm by pressing the Menu button. The lock is active (the display shows a lock symbol). Unlocking the station Press the Menu button. ON appears in the display Set the three-digit locking code. Press the Menu button to conrm the code. Forgotten code? Please contact our Customer Service: technical-service@weller- tools.com Offset The actual soldering-tip temperature can be adapted by entering a temperature offset around ± 40 °C (± 72 °F). °C °F Changing over the temperature unit. Option Description °C Celsius °F Fahrenheit

ENGLISH14 Menu 2 First choose the channel you wish to setup. Pressing and holding the Menu button (three seconds) takes you to menu 2 of the wished channel. Always make sure that the channel you have selected is the wished channel. The previously selected channel is shown on the display. If no channel is displayed, the changes refer to the entire device. Fixed temperatures Activation of the two xed temperatures which can be individually adjusted. Option

Description ON Fixed temperatures Activated OFF Fixed temperatures Deactivated (factory setting) If the xed temperatures are activated, they can be selected and changed by pressing the UP and DOWN buttons.

Power reduction to 150 W Tool combination not possible

Four variants are possible by connecting the 3.5 mm jack socket differently: a Hard-grounded supplied without plug. b Equipotential bonding with plug, equaliser at centre contact. c Floating with plug d Soft-grounded with plug and soldered resistor. Grounded through selected resistor. Soldering and desoldering Carry out soldering work as directed in the operating instructions of your connected soldering tool. Handling the soldering tips

• Coat the selective and tinnable soldering tip with solder when heating it up for the rst time. This removes oxide coatings which have formed during storage and impurities from the soldering tip.

• Make sure that the soldering tip is well coated with solder during breaks between soldering work and prior to storage of the device.

• Do not use aggressive uxing agents.

• Always make sure that the soldering tips are tted properly.

• Select as low a working temperature as possible.

• Select the largest possible soldering tip shape for the application. Rule of thumb: the soldering tip should be roughly as large as the soldering pad.

• Coat the soldering tip well with solder to ensure that there is efcient heat transfer between the soldering tip and the soldering area.

• Prior to extended breaks between soldering work, switch off the soldering system or use the Weller function to reduce the temperature when the soldering equipment is not in use.

• Coat the tip with solder prior to storage if you do not intend to use the soldering iron for an extended period of time.

• Apply solder directly to the soldering area, not to the soldering tip.

• Change the soldering tips using the designated tool.

• Do not apply mechanical force to the soldering tip. Notice The control units have been adapted to hold a medium-sized soldering tip. Discrepancies may occur if the tip is changed or a different shaped tip is used.
