Heat your hot plate up to about 375 on the dial. My remote thermometer said the surface was closer to 400-425.

Once it's hot gently put the board on and watch it until it all gets shiny. About 2-5 minutes. Once the barrel connector solders it should be done.

Gently remove the board and place it on a wooden board or some other heat resistant surface to cool for about 5 minutes.
