OPERATION
PROGRAM MODE
The Program Mode of operation (Program Mode Light illuminated) utilizes user developed rework profiles
previously stored in memory. The user recalls and uses the stored profile to produce consistent, repeatable
results. Four profile stages can be programmed: preheat, soak, reflow and cool down. This allows you to
emulate the production process.
PROGRAM COMPONENT REMOVAL
1. If the unit is being used with the handpiece mounted on the ThermoFlo work platform, install the PCB
on the work platform, in the Work Holder or the optional HS 200 preheating unit. Position PCB with
the component to be removed directly beneath and squared to the nozzle.
NOTE
If the HS 200 Heat Wave system is being used for preheating, ensure that
the system is properly set up (with a control cable connected between the
Heat Wave Power source and the Heat Wave Connector on the rear panel
of the ThermoFlo power source) and preheater is at the proper temperature.
Figure 56.
2. Set the unit POWER Switch (on rear panel of power source) to the ON
position.
3. Install the proper Nozzle Assembly and Vacuum Cup onto the handpiece.
Ensure that the PCB assembly to be reworked and any replacement
component have been properly prepared. Refer to the “General Process
Guidelines” portion of this manual.
4. Ensure that the ThermoFlo unit is in the PROGRAM Mode of operation
(PROGRAM Mode Light illuminated). Press and release MODE/ESC
Key as necessary.
