5 Setup Data
The knitting program consists of:
 Sintral program (*.sin)
 Jacquard program (*.jac)
 Information about production:
– Specification of the stitch length
– Distance between yarn carriers and fabric selvedge
– Carriage Speed...
You can handle this information about production as follows:
 define it with every pattern anew
 define it in a separate file which you can reuse with every pattern
This file is called Setup file
Your advantages working with a setup file:
 The setup-data are centralized in one setup-file
 Clear operation of all setup data on the machine.
 Clear separation of variable pattern parameters and constant Sintral
knitting specifications.
 All the parameters that are relevant when knitting-in the pattern are
located in the setup file.
 The complete pattern (Sintral, Jacquard, Setup) can be transferred to
another machine.
You can reduce the machine set-up time of the pattern by this.
 The Setup file can be applied to other pattern.
You can reduce the machine set-up time of the pattern by this.
