The Hakko FM-2030 Heavy-Duty Soldering Iron |
If you have a Hakko FM-203 Soldering Station with a serial number that is before 0220311002129 you'll need to purchase the FM203-UPGR upgrade. A Connector Error (C-E error) will appear on the display if you try to use the FM-2030 with an FM-203 that has not been upgraded.
The quickest way to find out if the FM-203 needs upgrading is to check the firmware version of the PCB installed in your station. Just follow these simple steps:
- Plug the FM-203 Soldering Station into a power outlet
- Insert the Lockout Key Card
- Remove all handpieces--there should be no handpieces connected to the "D" or "S" ports
- Hold down the *, S/Down, and # keys at the same time and turn on the power
- The FM-203 will display the power on test 8.8.8. and then display the firmware version number
- If the firmware version number shown is 3.01, then the station has been upgraded and is fully compatible with the FM-2030 Heavy-Duty Soldering Iron
