6.2. Calibrating the iron temperature
Setting the soldering iron station temperature to 350℃, when the
temperature stabilizes, use soldering iron tip thermometer
measurement and record tip real temperature, follow the procedure
6.1 input real temperature (see Fig.4), soldering iron station will
calculate temperature.
6.3 Cal. Status description
6.3.1. When Cal. status display “----“(see Fig 5),it means
temperature have not calibration.
Fig.5 Fig.6

6.3.2. When Cal. status display “>>>>” (see Fig 6.),it means “Real
Temp.” has calibrated and increase temperature.
For example :“set.Temp”is 350℃, "Real Temp.”is 320℃, after
temperature calibration as Fig 4.,temperature will rise to 350℃.
6.3.3.When Cal. status display “<<<<” (see Fig 7.),it means “Real
Temp.” has calibrated and decrease temperature.
6.3.4. When Cal. status display “》》》” (see Fig 8.),it means “Real
Temp.” has calibrated to max. temperature, can not increase anymore,
but it can decrease temperature.
Fig.7 Fig.8
6.3.5. When Cal. status display “《《《” (see Fig 9.),it means “Real
Temp.” has calibrated to minimum temperature, can not decrease
anymore, but it can increase temperature.
