Preamble
This manual explains the configuration of a local network that allows the connection of Stoll knitting machines, Stoll pattern units, Stoll pattern workstations and analysis computers with the Stoll-knit report program in your plant.
This network is used for centralized administration of patterns and machine operating systems, and to compute and evaluate machine and operational data (Stoll-knit report).
Stoll knitting machines CMS and Stoll pattern workstations can comunicate by three transmitting media:
- Ethernet (CMS-TC knitting machine and M1)
- Serial (Stoll-SELAN network)
- Combination of Ethernet and serial connection.
