• New yarn carrier - Normal yarn carrier type 2 (without lifters)

Supplements and corrections:

• Chapter Yarn Length Control (YLC, ASCON, STIXX)
  All the ASCON commands were renamed to YLC.
• Command Y-1A:Bn-m: Yarn carrier 1A braking value
  From the operating system V 2.2 on, this command is not allowed anymore.
  The yarn carrier braking values are no longer displayed in the knitting program but instead on the machine in the YC braking values window.
  If you want to load a knitting program with yarn carrier braking values appears the error message Command is not permitted, carry out the adjustment in the YC braking values window. Remedy: Delete the command in the knitting program and enter the braking values on the machine.
  Therefore, the command was deleted in the pocketcard.
