Setting switch- off time when a power failure occurs
4.2.6 Setting switch-off time when a power failure occurs
The machine is immediately stopped when a power failure (longer than 45
milliseconds) occurs. The knitting program, operating system and the
machine-specific data are not lost. The battery card (with the accumulators)
ensures this. A pictograph indicating the power failure appears on the touch
screen.

➜ Set machine main switch to "0".
Longer power failure If the power failure lasts more than 30 seconds (
standard setting), the
computer of the knitting machine is automatically shut down. The time until the
computer shuts down can be set from 2 to 180 seconds.
If you are sure that the power failure has
been in eff
ect for a longer period of
time, you can switch off the main switch with "Switch off main switch".
The set time always remain saved, even when the operating system is lo
aded
again.
Shorter power failure If the power supply is restored within the se
t time, confirm the power failure
message with the "Confirm message" key. To continue knitting, start the
machine with the engaging rod.
Conditions If the battery voltage is too low ("Battery voltage low" message appea
rs), it is
not possible to extend the power failure time.
If a STIXX device is used with the machine, a check is automatically performed
to det
ermine which device it is.
The extension of the power failure time is possible with an ASCON
device
and a new STIXX device (ID 236 275).
This is not possible with an older device,
as the STIXX correction values
cannot be saved and are therefore lost during a power failure. The power
failure time is automatically reduced to 2 seconds. If a higher time is set, a
message appears stating that this is not possible.
DANGER
Life-threatening high voltage!
Electrical shock may cause death or ser
ious injuries.
➜ Even in the case of power failure
, do not work on the
electrical system of the machine without interrupting the
power supply .
