Data communication function (DATA I/O)
Connecting an exclusive cable adaptor module (option) to the DATA I/O connector on the
upper part of the HAKKO FG-101B enables communication to applicable stations such as the
HAKKO FN-1010, etc. (See the figure below) Data communication by infrared will be disabled
during communication by DATA I/O. Pressing the
button for 1 second or longer sends
data. Only fixed values can be sent.
In order to send fixed values, the AUTO HOLD function or MAX HOLD function can be used
for temperature measurements and the AUTO HOLD function can be used for voltage or
resistance measurements. Measurement and data acquisition can be performed smoothly
using the functions of connected stations.
●
Ground terminal (GND)
When using a type of soldering iron that is grounded with an alligator clip, connect the clip to
the GND terminal.
Maintenance and Calibration
• To replace the conduction plate, remove the set screws.
• The life of the temperature sensor will vary depending on the temperature at which
measurements are made and the type of solder and flux being used. In general, temperature
sensors can be used for 50 measurements. Replace the sensor as soon as the measuring
point wears out.
• HAKKO can calibrate the instrument for a nominal fee. Please contact your dealer for further
information.
CAUTION
Pressing the POWER button while holding the
button pressed changes the
temperature unit between ˚C and ˚F.
