in the display and the Soldering Station will automatically adjust
to it.
Temperature up: In temperature adjusting mode, hold the button B for at least 2 seconds, in the display appears the desired
temperature.
Release the button B when the expected temperature appears
in the display and the Soldering Station will automatically adjust
to it.
Note: When screen displays arrow pointing to left or right (t or
u) which means the adjustment has already reached its upper/

Soldering iron tip maintenance
• Before switching off, wipe the tip’s soldering side with some
solder.
• Do not leave the tip in high temperature for long time, which
may cause it to burn out.
• Do not push too hard while soldering. That could damage
the soldering tip.
• Do not use rough material or files to clean the tip.
• If the soldering tip is oxidized, it will stick no tin. You can use
sand-paper (600 ~ 800 grain) to clean the tip with Ethanol or
Isopropyl alcohol. Heat the tip up to 200°C and use immediately some tin to avoid oxidation.
• Do not use Flux that contains high chlorine or acid, use only
resin based flux.
Changing default settings
Connect the Soldering Station to the PC using the USB cable,
in the OLED will appear "CONFIG" and you will be in the setting
mode. Open the config.txt file from the USB drive, set the default
parameters.
Firmware update
Visit www.graupner.de and download the latest Soldering Station
firmware to your PC.
Connect the Soldering Station to your PC with the USB data
cable, meanwhile, press the button A on the Soldering Station
to enter the DFU mode. If "DFUxxx" appears in the display, then
you will be able to see a virtual disk with an eight-character serial
number in your PC.
Copy the hex firmware to the root directory of that disk. When
the extension of the firmware changes from “hex” to “rdy”, disconnect USB and the firmware is upgraded.
Changing boot-up screen
Create your own 96x16 pixel image in .bmp as monochromatic
Bitmap, copy this file in the USB drive of the Soldering Station,
change the name to "LOGOIN";
Note: When the “LOGOIN.BMP” exists in the USB drive, the boot
up logo will use this file. If the file doesn’t exist, the default logo
will be used instead.

random numbers
The device checks the status, it is normal
The Soldering Station
restarts automatically
Check 1: Is the power source properly plugged?
Check 2: Is the voltage too low?
(it has to be set up in the config file)
Soldering tip is heating
up and cooling down
simultaneously
Check 1:Is the tip being used for the first time?
Check 2: Is the power cord in loose or defective contact?

Read the section "soldering iron tip maintenance"
OLED shows “Warning!” Check 1: Is the tip overheating?
Is temperature higher than the maximum operation temperature
When temperature is again lower than maximum operation
temperature, the warning message will disappear and it will
return to operation mode
OLED displays”High-Vt” Check: Is the voltage too high? (over 24V)
OLED displays “Sen-err” Check 1: Is the tip properly installed? If yes, then replace the
soldering tip
The soldering tip does
not stick any solder
The soldering side of the tip is not applied with solder properly
Lack of flux during operation
Tip touched materials like plastic, silicone oil or other chemi-
cals
Using impure solder or solder that contains low proportion of
tin
