− can carry out a software update ("Firmware Updater“) on your control unit and − can remote-control the control unit and graphically display, store and print temperature curves ("Monitor Software“). Note Control units WD 1 and WD 1000 can be retrofitted with a USB interface.
− Continuous illumination indicates that the system is warming up. − Flashing light indicates that the preselected temperature has been reached. Note Please refer to the accessories section on page 18 for a list of tools that can be connected to the WD 1 (M) / WD 1000 (M).

Setting the station identification (ID code) When the optional USB port is used, several WD 1 (M) / WD 1000 (M) soldering stations can be activated and remote-controlled to their full operational extent. To this end, each station requires a station identification (ID code) so that it can clearly identified.

WD 1 (M) / WD 1000 (M) 15-18 Executing the calibration function (Factory Calibration Check) With the FCC function you can check the temperature precision of the soldering station and compensate for possible deviations. For this purpose, the soldering-tip temperature must be measured with an external temperature meter and a temperature measuring tip assigned to the soldering tool.
