with system), tighten the set screw on the Temp.
Locking Ring closest to the front panel.
Temperature Selection
VariableTemperatureControl
Adjust the Variable Temperature Control Knob to the
desired temperature setting. Notice that the control dial
has a White graphic scale denoting temperature in °C
(Celsius) and aYellow graphic scale denoting
temperaturein°F (Fahrenheit). These numericalscales
denote the set tip temperature times 100 (e.g., “3” on the
Whitescaleis3x100or300°C).

17
Operation
TipOffset
Differences between the temperature settings and true tip temperatures are negligible
when using Thru-Hole, single point soldering tips. With any heating system however,
True Tip Temperatures can differ greatly from temperature settings when using larger
SMTsoldering tips. This difference is called Tip Temperature Offset. PACE
recommends the use of theTip &Temperature Selection System booklet (PACE P/N
5050-0251) as a guide to accurately set and maintain a true tip temperature for any size
and type of SMT tip.
LED Full On - Continuous power is being delivered to the handpiece. This condition is
evident when the system is first powered up (handpiece heater cold) or the Variable
Temperature Control setting is increased.
LED Flashing - Indicates that the set tip temperature (as set on the VariableTemperature
Control) has been reached. Power to the handpiece is cycling Off and On to maintain set
temperature.
LED Off - No power is being delivered to the handpiece heater. This condition is evident
for a short period of time when set temperature is reached and stabilizing or if the Variable
Temperature Controlsetting isdecreased. If theLED never illuminates, checkforafaulty
handpiece (see Corrective Maintenance section). Also, if no handpiece is connected to
thepowersource,theLEDwillnotilluminate.
LED Operation
The Green colored LED on the power source front panel indicates System Status and
PowerReceptacle outputstatus(LEDOFF,ONorFlashing). Following isanexplanation
of these status indicators.

18
Calibration
The ST 65 system is tested for temperature accuracy at the factory and can be
checked for calibration according to PACE requirements. Also, a temperature setting
normally used by the operator can be adjusted to the precise temperature indicated
on the Dial/Display. No internal adjustments can be made to the power supply. To
verify calibration of the power supply, perform the following procedure.
1. Install a tip with an attached thermocouple
wire into the handpiece connected to the
system. Tips with K type thermocouples
areavailablefrom PACE; use partnumber
7021-0004-P1whenordering.
2. Connect the thermocouple assembly to a PACE Process Monitor (part
number8001-0077or8001-0078)orappropriatetemperaturemeter.
3. When set fully counterclockwise,the pointer of the Variable Temperature
Control knob will align to the Calibration Mark as shown. With the
system turned on, adjust the Variable Temperature Control to obtain a
stable tip temperature of 300°C (for PACE factory specifications) or the
temperature setting normally used by the operator.
If the temperature displayed on the Process Monitor (or temperature meter) is
within±15°C(27°F), perform steps 4 thru 6 to obtain aprecise reading. If the
temperature is off by more than ±15°C, the handpiece may require
maintenance. Recheck the temperature using a second handpiece.
4. Carefully lock the Variable Temperature Control in position by tightening
the inner set screw (closest to front panel).
5. Loosen the outer set screw on the Variable
Temperature Controlknob(furtherestfrom
front panel) using the Temp. Locking Key (hex
key) supplied with the system. Position the
knob with the pointer aligned to match the
temperature indicated on the Process Monitor
(or temperature meter). Secure the knob in
position by tightening the outer set screw.
6. Loosen the inner set screw to unlock the
VariableTemperaturecontrolif adjustmentof
operating tip temperature is desired.
