9.12 Reverse Motor Rotation
Function with or without control panel Parameter
Positioning speed (n1) 110
Number of reversing degrees (ird) 180
Switch-on delay of reverse motor rotation (drd) 181
Reverse motor rotation On/Off (Frd) 182
The function "reverse motor rotation" is performed after trimming. When the stop position is reached, the drive stops for
the duration of the switch-on delay of reverse motor rotation. Then it runs in reverse direction at positioning speed
according to the set degrees.
9.13 Unlocking the Chain (Mode 4/5/6/7/16)
Function with or without control panel Parameter
Number of run-out stitches upon unlocking the chain (c6) 184
Function “unlock the chain” in modes 4, 5, 6, 7 and 16 (MEk) 190
Upon unlocking the chain at the seam end, the functions backtacking, chain suction, thread trimming and tape
cutter/fast scissors are automatically suppressed. If, however, parameter 190 = 3, the function tape cutter/fast scissors is
possible. After pressing the key "unlocking the chain" and with pedal in position 0 (neutral), the drive always stops in
position 1.
Settings necessary for the operation “unlocking the chain”:
Set “unlock the chain” using parameter 190 = 1 / 2 / 3 /4 (190 = 0 “unlock the chain” off)
Set switch-on delay using parameter 181 and reversing angle using parameter 180
Determine the function of the key “unlock the chain” using one of the parameters 240...249
If parameter 290 is set at “7“, a switch at the input in1...i10 must be closed and programmed to “18“.
If parameter 290 is set at “16“, the function “unlock the chain” must be switched on corresponding to slide-in strip 7
using key 8 on the V820 control panel.
190 = 0: Unlocking the chain Off
190 = 1: Sequence with pedal in position -2 from machine run or from position 2:
- Press key "unlock the chain"
- Run at positioning speed to position 1
- Sequence of reversing angle at positioning speed after a switch-on delay that can be set
190 = 1: Sequence with pedal in position -2 from standstill in position 1:
- Press key "unlock the chain"
- Sequence of reversing angle at positioning speed after a switch-on delay that can be set
190 = 2: Automatic sequence with light barrier at the seam end without tape cutting / pedal in position –2
according to the setting of parameter 019:
- Press key "unlock the chain"
- Run to position 1 after light barrier sensing
- Sequence of reversing angle at positioning speed after a switch-on delay that can be set
190 = 3 Automatic sequence with light barrier at the seam end with tape cutting and run-out stitches (only
possible in modes 7 and 16 and if parameter 018 = 0):
- Press key "unlock the chain"
- After light barrier sensing, execution of compensating stitches and end counting until tape cutting
- Run-out stitches until unlocking the chain can be set using parameter 184
- Sequence of reversing angle at positioning speed after a switch-on delay that can be set
190 = 4: Sequence with pedal in position –2 / no unlocking of the chain if seam end with light barrier, cutting and
run-out stitches is set:
- Press the pedal to position –2
- Run at positioning speed to position 1
- Sequence of reversing angle at positioning speed after a switch-on delay that can be set
- No unlocking of the chain at the seam end with light barrier
- Reverse motor rotation is suppressed when the drive stops. The signals “blow fabric onto stack”, M2 and
“sewing foot lift” will be issued.
