7.6 Needle selection displacement
Condition:

Operating system of the knitting machine: Operating system OKC V 2.5
(or higher).
With this test the interaction of the impulse sensor, the control unit and the
different selection systems is synchronized. This takes place with the help of
test series. With different reaction times it is checked whether the needles are
driven out to the "stitch" position for knitting or not. You have to check this in
both carriage directions. You enter these test results in a table. From these
test results the optimum reaction time is calculated.
The needle selection displacement is carried out with the following steps:

Setting the impulse sensor type [
