The only text that changes color on my screen when firing in wattage mode is the wattage. The rest of the text stays the same. If my screen text is blue or white, the wattage changes to yellow while firing. If my screen text is yellow, the wattage changes to white while firing. I haven't yet used any mode other than wattage.
When the screen is on, push and hold the joystick up for about 3 seconds to change the text color.
Bypass mode: joystick down. Change text colors: joystick up. That's how it works on mine.
With the screen on, push the joystick straight in, then release. The wattage number will change color. Then, push the joystick up or down to change wattage. If you accidentally press the joystick in more than once, it will cycle with each push through Joules mode, temperature mode, Joules mode again, then back to wattage mode.
Yep that's what mine does, I have it set to display temp as the dominant one on the screen but it is the only one to change colors when I fire it. Sure seems to work well with SS in Temp mode. I do like the original screen which gives you a display of how the temp is increasing they others don't show that, they just show set temp and it doesn't change as you fire it, would be pretty cool if the sports car screen showed the gauge moving but it is not animated to do that. In fact none of them except the stock screen does that.
Thats a way to change form Power to TC quickly, when in watts it is in Power when in Joules it is in TC. I push it till it brings up temp then leave it there. You can easily change the temp then with one push when it is red go up or down to change the temp to what you want. Sort of a Temp Dominant like on the dna's
If you want temp control it is only displayed in joules to change it press in on the joystick till joules is displayed then change it anytime it displays wattage you are in power mode. Also and easy way to change from temp to straight power after joules is displayed and set to what you want you can press it again and temp will come up and you can change that to what you want then press the fire button and the temp will remain displayed and it will be in TC mode and you can change temp by pushing the joystick in once and change it when it is at desired setting hit fire button and new temp is set.
Thats why it is the only place I've ever bought my 9 SX's if you are speaking of Varitube. The best. I don't mind paying a few dollars more for the protection they provide. I've never had to use it but I have seen many who have and they provide service like no other, including all the way through the 1 year warranty and beyond in many cases.
I sent an email to Varitube yesterday at 6 pm to inquire about possible repair of my Q Class and haven't yet gotten any answer... so my very first contact with Varitube hasn't led to the quick response I was expecting.
