Special Sintral commands

  • These Sintral commands for yarn length control are still supported by the According to Sintral specification operating mode.
  • Use the Working with mm or Working with Master Piece operating mode for new knitting programs. Conceptual Considerations

YLC‑ command

The YLC- command deactivates the control for one carriage stroke.
If an YLC error message appears in each fabric always at the same place (for example YLC Yarn error), you can deactivate the YLC control for this knitting row.

YLCDEV Command

With the YLCDEV command the correction values are copied from a yarn carrier (measuring wheel) already in use to a new one. This prevents possible corrections of the newly used yarn carrier.

Example for working with the YLCDEV command

Explanation

Specification in Sintral program

V-neck

Up to the start of the V-neck only yarn carrier 3 works. In the V-neck it knits the right part and yarn carrier 6 the left part.

YLCDEV:3-6;

Result: The correction value of yarn carrier 3 will be applied for yarn carrier 6.

Per carriage stroke up to four value pairs can be specified.
Example: YLCDEV:3-6 3-5 2-4 1-7.

You can enter either the Sintral command YLC or STIXX into the knitting program. The OKC knitting machine understands both instructions.
