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.
