Advantages with Grouping Stitch Lengths

Pattern without grouping

When setting up the pattern on the machine, you have to adjust step by step each NP value of the table or via a common correction value (NPK) until the desired length and quality of the fabric is reached.

Changing the individual NP values takes a lot of time when setting-up the pattern.
The input of a NPK value does not always lead to the desired result.

Pattern with grouping

When setting-up the pattern on the machine, all NP values which are combined in group can be corrected by a common correction value (NPK) .

Recommendation:

When creating the pattern at M1plus, the programmer has to combine the stitch length values to groups according to the structure of the pattern (areas of special structures).

Note:

You can set up groups directly on the machine as well!
This requires exact knowledge of the program structure.
