This Krieger is an up/down bi-directional converter. I have one made in Korea, also up/down converter and it only contains a large toroidal transformer and I suspect this one is also just a large transformer in a box and unlikely to have any solid-state conversion going on. especially since it is "heavy" so lots of iron core inside ? So no clue why the display is wonky.

how clean is the output of your inverter? some just output square waves,
which might be confusing the processor in your soldering station. it
almost looks like it is getting a "reset" and rebooting.
many folks have the same problem with inverters that run 110V stuff of
their 12V system in a Motor Home or car.
