Parameter Settings - Velleman VTSSC72 Manual Del Usuario

A good joint is assured if the iron's operating temperature is set within the parameters
suitable for the type of solder being used. The solder will flow too slowly if the
temperature is too low; if the temperature is too high, the flux in the solder may burn
which will give rise to billowing white smoke. In turn, this will result in a dry joint or in
permanent damage to the PCB.
7. Operating Instructions
Verify whether the operating voltage of the unit is identical to that of the electrical
supply.
General
1. Make sure the unit's power switch is in the "OFF"-position.
2. Plug in the soldering tweezers and iron. Note that the connectors have a notch so
they only fit in one way. Do not force.

suitable mains outlet.
4. When applicable, connect an earth wrist strap to the earth jack at the back of the
station.

and 100 indicating password enabled. Press the set-button to return to the setup
menu.

F-2: temperature correction mode
Press the set-button once to enter temperature correction mode. Press the ▲- or ▼-
button to enter a correction factor for the temperature, e.g. when the display shows
300 °C but the actual temperature is only 290 °C, add 10 °C to the shown
correction value.
When in °C negative values are indicated with a minus in front; in °F negative
values are indicated by a blinking display (5 s interval). Press the set-button to
return to the setup menu.

F-3: unit of temperature
Press the set-button once to enter temperature mode. Press the ▲- or ▼-button to
