Commissioning
5. Commissioning
5.1 Prerequisites for commissioning
a) First find out how to safely operate the soldering station in chapter For your
safety [ } 5].
b) Check the contents in the package for completeness. Read more about this in
chapter Scope of delivery [ } 14]. Should any of the listed components be dam-
aged or incomplete, immediately contact the supplier.
Prerequisites of the power and network connection
If more than one soldering station is operated at a workplace, equalisation currents
may occur. To avoid this, the mains plugs of all soldering stations must be plugged
into the same multiple socket outlet, or directly into adjacent sockets.
If several soldering stations are connected through an Ethernet LAN cable, they
must be connected to the same switch to avoid equalisation currents.
Two options are available to operate the soldering station through the
network with a web browser enabled device
– Operating the soldering station via WLAN.
In this case, the soldering station must be integrated into an existing WiFi net-
work using a smartphone or tablet with an Android or iOS operating system.
The “Ersa TRACE” app must be installed on the mobile device.
If the soldering station is connected to the WLAN network, it must be operated
via WLAN with the “Ersa TRACE Cockpit” web app on a web browser enabled
device.
– Operating the soldering station via a LAN cable in the Ethernet network.
To do so, the optional Ethernet network card must be inserted into the solder-
ing station (see chapter Spare/wear parts and accessories [
} 45]).
If the soldering station is connected to the network through the LAN cable, it
must be operated with the “Ersa TRACE Cockpit” web app on a web browser
enabled device with LAN connection. A mobile device with the “Ersa TRACE”
app to establish the network connection is not required.
