SMART MATRIX QUILT

LEARN 

The LEARN function (which can be activated pressing the button 

) allows you to carry out a learning 

cycle during which the system detects and memorizes the number of sensors (nnnn) inside which the yarn is 
regularly running, excluding the sensors that are detecting a tension too low. 

At the end of learning cycle, after the time interval defined in Delay FAST, the system automatically activates 
the Control mode and continuously controls the regular running of yarn inside all the “nnnn” sensors detected 
during the learning stage. 

The LEARN function must be activated while the Quilting Machine is stationary. 

Pressing the  

 button, the LEARN function is ”reserved” (P_LEARN shown on the screen) and it will be 

executed only at the machine re-start. 

 

 

Press the 

LEARN

 activation button.
