We have done several tests and in general, you have to turn on the Holdtime (in menu) to achieve full wetting at the top temperature. Also be sure to place the board in the middle of the oven since the sides do not heat as much. | We have done several tests and in general, you have to turn on the Holdtime (in menu) to achieve full wetting at the top temperature.

| + | ; 2024-05-09 : Old laptop gone, so I tried 4 different machines. The ez-reflow software has a custom FTDI driver that is blocked by anything newer than Windows 7. It will not install on Windows XP, 10 or 11. I eventually found a donated machine that could do this, but since it's highly inscure - do not ever connect this machine to our network in any way! The machine does not have a working battery, so it must be plugged in when using. The machine also has no CMOS battery, so you'll need to restart it quite a few times before it starts. It will eventually though. | ||

You need to place the PCB centrally in the oven between the top and bottom sensors. It is very important that the PCB is placed under the sensor so that the sensor does not receive any radiated heat from the preheater (bottom) IR-lamps.This ensures that the temperature control will function properly.
When precise temperature readings on the PCB are required, place the external sensor thermocouple directly to the PCB in order to measure the temperature on its surface. Secure it with Kaptopn tape or solder it using solder wire with high melting tmperature to the top or the bottom of the PCB.
Using the oven: Use the arrow keys to navigate the menu. To select a program, click until you see "Program" in the menu. Select program (1-5) and wait a few seconds for the machine to confirm the selection. To exit the menu, select the Quit-item and press Ok. Then press Ok to start the program. Here's a list of the current programs, their timings and peak temperatures. The first 3 are default programs.
P1: Goes to 233C over 3.5 min, door open at 175C P2: Goes to 235C over 4.5 min, door open at 185C P3: Goes to 235C over 5 min. Door open at 185C P4: Goes to 249C over 5.5 min, hold for 0,5 min. Door open 185C P5: 60C only (drying program?) (edited)
Solder Paste
Eurocircuit recommends using SAC305 (SN96,5Ag3.0Cu0.5), a lead free paste that typically melts at around 227°C. It is however not fully melted at this temperature as explained here: SAC305 begins to melt at 217°C, reaching its fully liquid state at approximately 220.6°C. Recommended reflow temperatures are typically at least 13°C higher than melting temperatures; hence the SAC305 peak temperature window of 233 – 255.
We have done several tests and in general, you have to turn on the Holdtime (in menu) to achieve full wetting at the top temperature. Also be sure to place the board in the middle of the oven since the sides do not heat as much.
