Determine Basic Conditions

With Determine basic conditions, the correction values are recorded (REC).

Determine basic conditionsEKC
  • The measuring wheels are configured.
  • The yarn tension at the yarn control unit is set for each yarn (at least 8 cN).
  • The operating mode Working with mm is selected in the Setup Editor.
  • No YLC data available
    - or -
  • You want to re-determine the basic conditions.
  1. Open the Contrôle de la longueur du fil window.
    Produire l'ordre Contrôler la production Contrôle de la longueur du fil
  1. Activate Déterminer les conditions de base.
  1. Re-start knitting the fabric piece to determine the basic conditions.

  • The fabric piece will be produced.
    The correction value is determined for each stitch cam position (NP).
  • Once the fabric has been completed, the machine stops automatically.
    The correction values are determined.
    The check box (2) is enabled automatically.
    The YLC Record basic conditions (REC MM) again or change to production (YLC MM) message appears.
  1. Remove the fabric from the machine and control it.
  1. change to production if the fabric is OK.
    - or -
    record basic conditions again if the fabric is not OK.
  1. Save correction values.
    For this, save the pattern in the Load & Save menu.
  1. Start production.
  • The data are compared with the currently determined data. If necessary, the ASCON device carries out a correction.
  • Yarn variations are compensated.
  • The stitch density and therefore, also the dimensions of the fabric are constant.
  1. Save again the current correction values to be able to use them for later production. For this, save the pattern in the Load & Save menu.

For the production of another making-up size, the basic conditions do not need to be determined again, as the yarn length of a stitch (NP in mm) does not change.
