  • Page 2 As an electronics enthusiast I am fortunate to work in the electronics field and I have started welding the first components with a soldering station from Weller. By developing electronics projects even at home, the expense of a soldering station like that of Weller is not justified so following various projects of other soldering stations I have built myself.
  • Page 3 Power Supply The power supply is defined by the connector CN1 and + 12V and GND as in the image: The power supply is protected against polarity reversal by means of diode D1. Weller Tip: The terminal block for connecting the tip cables is identified by the code CN2 with the following pinout: 1- GND;...
  • Page 4 Board programming: N.B: NEVER CONNECT POWER SUPPLY AND USB TOGETHER. IF YOU WANT TO CONNECT THEM TOGETHER, REMOVE THE USB FUSE INDICATED BY THE RED ARROW FROM ARDUINO. We recommend programming individually. For programming it is necessary to download the 4 libraries listed below: Adafruit SSD1306 by Adafruit;...
  • Page 5 Screens: Logo After 1 second the following screen is shown: This screen indicates that we are on stand by and the soldering iron is off.
  • Page 6 If the tip is not connected, the red LED lights up steadily and the following screen will appear: The green led indicates that the board is powered while the red led has 3 operating modes:  LED Fixed  Error or tip not connected; ...
  • Page 7 MainScreen: This screen allows the encoder to: Pressing and releasing the encoder quickly to select the desired temperature indicated by the arrow > By turning the encoder to manually change the set temperature in increments and decreases of 5 ° C.
  • Page 8: Setting Menu

    SettingMenu: The setting menu can only be accessed from the main screen by pressing the encoder for more than 3 seconds and then releasing it. The settings menu allows you to set: Preset Temperature T1 e T2; PID parameters; Timer for switching off. Preset Temperature: The two temperatures can be changed by rotating the encoder and confirming by pressing and quickly releasing.
  • Page 9 PID menu: We can adjust the Kp, Kd, Ki by acting on the encoder and always confirming with a fast pressure of the encoder. By pressing on Next we can set the sleep timer. Timer setting: The first number indicates the minutes and the second number indicates the seconds (mm: ss). In each menu setting we can always go back to the main screen by pressing for more than 3 seconds and then releasing the encoder.
  • Page 10 Encoder states: 1. Long Press  Enter or exit the settings menu; 2. Short Press  Change the temperatures, confirm the data entered in the setting menu; 3. Rotating  Varies the temperature, changes the data in the setting menu. System states:...
