<h1 id="menu-system">Menu System</h1>
|
|
<p>In this firmware for these soldering irons, all settings are adjustable on the device itself. This means a computer is <strong>not</strong> required to change any setting.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="soldering-mode">Soldering mode</h2>
|
|
<p>In this mode the iron works as you would expect, pressing either button will take you to a temperature change screen.
|
|
- Use each button to go up/down in temperature. Pressing both buttons exits the temperature menu (or wait 3 seconds and it will time out).
|
|
- Pressing both buttons or holding the rear button (<code>-/B</code>) will exit Soldering Mode.
|
|
- Holding the front button (<code>+/A</code>) will enter <a href="https://ralim.github.io/IronOS/Menu/#boost-mode">Boost mode</a> (if enabled).</p>
|
|
<h2 id="profile-mode-mhp30-only">Profile mode (MHP30 only)</h2>
|
|
<p>In this mode, accessible by long pressing <code>(+/A)</code>, the configured profile will be initiated.
|
|
- You cannot adjust the temperature or enter boost mode.
|
|
- Pressing both buttons or holding the rear button (<code>-/B</code>) will exit Profile Mode as well.</p>
|
|
<h2 id="settings-mode">Settings mode</h2>
|
|
<p>This mode allows you to cycle through all the options and set custom values.
|
|
The menu is arranged so that the most often used settings are first.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>The rear button (<code>-/B</code>) cycles through the main options. (declines i.e. Additional warning to proceed.)</li>
|
|
<li>The front button (<code>+/A</code>) either enters a submenu or changes the selected option. (accepts i.e. Additional warning to proceed.)</li>
|
|
<li>If the device is unplugged before exiting the main menu settings will not be saved.</li>
|
|
<li>To exit the menu, either continue to press (<code>-/B</code>) or hold it until the idle screen is reached. Alternatively, you could press (<code>-/A</code>) & (<code>-/B</code>) simultaneously to exit the submenu and once more to exit the main menu.</li>
|
|
<li>If you idle on a setting (i.e., don't press any buttons), after 3 seconds, the screen scrolls a brief description (mini help guide).</li>
|
|
<li>Enter submenus using the front button (<code>+/A</code>) if you are going to change it or wish to view it.</li>
|
|
<li>Scrolling through the all options of a submenu will return you back to its entry location.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<h3 id="calibrating-input-voltage">Calibrating input voltage</h3>
|
|
<p>Due to the tolerance on the resistors used for the input voltage divider, some irons can be up to 0.6 V out on the voltage measurement.
|
|
Please calibrate your iron if you have any issues with the cutoff voltage. This calibration is not required if you have no issues.
|
|
Note that cutoff messages can also be triggered by using a power supply that is too weak and fails under the load of the iron.</p>
|
|
<p>To calibrate your iron:</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Measure the input voltage with a multimeter and note it down.</li>
|
|
<li>Connect the input to your iron.</li>
|
|
<li>Enter the settings menu</li>
|
|
<li>Under the Advanced submenu</li>
|
|
<li>Select the calibrate voltage option</li>
|
|
<li>Use the front and back buttons to adjust the displayed voltage to minimize the error to your original measurement</li>
|
|
<li>Press both buttons at the same time to Save and Exit to the menu</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<h3 id="calibrate-tip-cjc">Calibrate Tip CJC</h3>
|
|
<p>This calibrates the <a href="https://ralim.github.io/IronOS/Temperature/">Cold Junction Compensation</a> <em>(CJC)</em> for the tip. This is normally not needed unless you have an issue with tip temperature or your tips are wearing out prematurely. Changing tip lengths does not necessarily mean a calibration is needed. Check first that your tips are not defective and measured resistance is close to specifications <em>[Pinecil / TS100 short tips </em><em>6.2 Ω</em><em>, long tips </em><em>8 Ω</em><em>, TS80/P ~</em><em>4.5 Ω</em><em>]</em>.</p>
|
|
<p>What this is for:<br>
|
|
Some tips have an offset on their readings which causes issues, i.e. The actual temperature of the tip is much higher than displayed. Follow the steps below to calibrate this.</p>
|
|
<p>Caution:<br>
|
|
If the method below is not followed, the iron could be worse than before calibration. If you need to repeat the method, first unplug and let the handle/PCB cool down to room temperature.</p>
|
|
<ol>
|
|
<li>Connect power to your device.</li>
|
|
<li>Go to <strong><code>Advanced Settings</code></strong> using (<code>-/B</code>) and press (<code>+/A</code>) to select it. Use (<code>-/B</code>) to scroll to <strong><code>Calibrate CJC at next boot</code></strong> and confirm with (<code>+/A</code>).</li>
|
|
<li>Accept the <em>'warning text'</em> with (<code>+/A</code>).</li>
|
|
<li>Exit the settings menu as usual by pressing and holding (<code>-/B</code>).</li>
|
|
<li>Unplug you device.</li>
|
|
<li><strong>Critical: Make sure a tip is attached & wait until the tip & handle are at room temperature.</strong> (Wait a reasonable amount of time after having used the device.)</li>
|
|
<li>Power the device and ideally keep it out of your hands (You know it might get warm.).</li>
|
|
<li>The display shows <strong><code>calibrating ....</code></strong> for a short time while the device measures and compares the tip and handle voltages.</li>
|
|
<li><strong><code>Calibration done!</code></strong> is displayed for 3 seconds. The new offset value can later be viewed in the <strong><code>Debug menu</code></strong>.</li>
|
|
<li>Calibration is done and the device proceeds booting.</li>
|
|
</ol>
|
|
<p>Note: offsets are dependant on your tip, temperature sensor, and the MCU. It's the culmination of tolerances at rest. Typical values are 700-1000 range. This is only designed to be used at boot while cold (ambient / room temperature), as temperatures drift apart as soon as power is connected. Doing this reading repeatedly could result in wide varience of the offset number and/or incorrect calibration.</p>
|
|
<h3 id="boost-mode">Boost mode</h3>
|
|
<p>This allows you to change the front button (<code>+/A</code>) to become a boost button when you hold it for > 2 seconds. A boost button changes the soldering temperature for short periods. For example, when soldering a big joint and you need a much higher temperature, hold the (<code>+/A</code>) button down and it will temporarily increase the temperature to your 'boost' setting. When you release the button, the temperature will gradually go back to the normal set temperature.</p>
|
|
<p>The boost temperature is set in Soldering settings.</p>
