7.3 Holding force when idle
If the programming level of a parameter is selected, buttons S1 and S2 have the following functions:
Confirmation - Keep S1 (OK) pressed (> one second)
Cancellation - Keep S2 ( ESC) pressed (> one second)
Plus - Briefly press S1 (+) (< one second)
Minus - Briefly press S2 (-) (< one second)
Briefly pressing S1 increases the holding force by 0.5 A; briefly pressing S2 reduces it by 0.5 A.
The set value is then indicated by the flashing LEDs.
S1 LED : Pre-decimal position
S2 LED : Decimal place
The LEDs flash every 0.5 seconds. After a pause of 1.5 seconds, the sequence is repeated until it is confirmed
or cancelled.
Confirm the programmed result by pressing S1. Leave the programming level by pressing S2.
This function prevents unwanted "wandering" of the needle when the machine has come to a standstill.
The effect can be checked by turning the hand wheel.
Holding force takes effect when idle
- for a stop in the seam
- after the end of the seam
The effect can be adjusted
The higher the set value, the stronger the holding force
7.4 Setting the positions
The angle settings required on the machine, e.g. "Needle down" or "Thread lever up" are saved in the control
unit. A reference position is required to establish a relationship between the position sensor information and the
actual mechanical position. The reference position may be different depending on the parameter settings,
normally "Point at which the needle penetrates the stitch plate (EP)"
The reference position must be set:
on first commissioning
after replacing the control unit
after replacing the motor or the incremental sensor.
