  This stops the process. It is only possible in pattern knitting state (the state of chain stop).
- (2) Cycle End ("F2" Key )
  This functions to put the cycle to stop at the original position after a sock is knitted.
- (3) Whole yarn In/Out ("F4" Key )
  This is to lift yarn if the yarn is severed in knitting. When pressed once, the whole yarn is lifted, and pressed once more, the yarn is put back to the original position.
- (4) Low Speed ("F5" Key )
  The machine operates at about 150 RPM in this mode, regardless of the speed that presently operates the machine.
- (5) Ring blower ON, OFF ( Key "2" )
  This stops or operates the Ring blowermotor only at "ON" and "OFF" Mode.
- (6) Set knitting amount and the automatic stop ("F7" Key )
  This automatically stops the whole process at the original position after a certain amount of knitting is done.
  F7 Key - 4 digits. The numbers should be set right after the machine comes to a full stop.
- (7) Initiation of production amount
  This puts the production amount at "0".
- (8) Course Reduction ("" Key )
  This reduces the length of knitting by 1 to 4 ( in case of semidrumless ).
- (9) Stitch Adjustment ("F8" Key )
  This adjusts stitch during knitting process. It adjusts actual stitch value of the numbers (1-8) that the chain designates.

  2. How to Use Chain, Fixed Selection, Jacquard Data
     * Chain, fixed selection, Jacquard data are the basic movements of drumless controller.
     - Chain Data
       This is the basic data for the entire movements. It designates and uses position, length, speed, stitch, direction, yarn movement, fixed selection, pattern knitting, etc.
       It has 100 steps from 1 to 100 and sub-chain as well. Each sub-chain has 10 steps; it can be used for special movement.
     - Fixed Selection Data
       This designates movement of each actuator(Jacquard number). And it can designate a total of 28 air cam movements per actuator. Therefore it can designate movements of air cam and F that are needed for machine operation. It can use 40 data from 1 to 40, and usually uses 38, 39, 40 as the movement for re-start.
     - Jacquard Data
       This can designate and use 20 data from 1 to 20, which are necessary for actuator movement.
       Accordingly the entire movement is designated by chain; and corresponding air cam actual movement and actuator movement are designated by FS data. The actual movement of actuator is defined by Jacquard data.

     1.chain data : It designates entire movement. FS. Num out of chain data designates FS to be used.
     2. FS Data : It designates air cam movement. Jacquard number out of FS data designates Jacquard to be used.
     3. Jacquard Data : It defines actual actuator movement.

     < Correlation of chain data, F.S. and Jacquard data >

     1) Chain Data
     Drumless controller has movements that are basically defined by chain data.
     Chain Data is the basic data that designates and controls the entire movements of the machine.
     It designates and uses movements of air cam, actuator and yarn, and pattern knitting, speed, motor rotation direction and it requires special caution to designate and use the data.

     (1) Configuration of Chain Data

     | 1) main movement 2) ringle movement It designates cam movement related to main yarn, doors and rubber yarn. 3) color yarn It designates movements of yarn of each F and Pile HEAD. 4) others

     -1- Main Movement : This designates basic movements including direction, step number, F.S. num, speed, stitch.

     a. Position
     This is for designating position. It is indicated as Start, Make-Up, Plane, Gum, Knit- Gum, Transfer, Leg, Knit-Leg, Heel-Up, Heel-Dn, Foot, Knit-Foot, Ringle-Toe, Toe-Up, Toe-Dn, Rosso, Lose.
     How to Correct
     * Correction and editing are made only in the DL-WIN program.
     *In Step 1, ＆Start＊ must be designated. And if ＆Start＊ is designated during the step process, that means the whole step will begin from the Step 1. Therefore, caution is needed in designating position.
     b. FS. N : This designates fixed selection numbers of 1 to 40, Wait (in case of 0), Pat.. (in case of 100).
     Number from 1 to 40
     This designates already set data in order to designate air cam movements of Start, Transfer, Heel, and actuator movement. Special caution is required to designate the position. (Numbers 38, 39, 40 are usually for Q＊rtn.)
     Wait (0)
     This is used for fixed movements of nylon knitting transfer, gum knitting, heel or toe knitting. In gum knitting (1:1), gum knitting is possible regardless of pattern if 1c movement for Jacquard is set as 1:1, and 1F is set as up-movement.
     Pat..(100)
     This is for leg and foot pattern knitting. Pattern knitting is already set in diskette.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "FS.N" and press 3 digits (0,1-40,00). Then Press SET key (ESC to cancel).
     * Whether to correct the pattern or not is asked twice because it is an important information. ("SET" for correction and "ESC" for cancellation).
     c. Size : This is the length of step. The size should be designated as 1 if "FS.N" is 1 to 40. And it should be designated properly when it comes to Wait and Pattern.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "Size" and press 4 digits, for instance, 0020 for designating 20 rotations.
     d. Spd. : This designates the speed of present step. The speed should be designated as 80 if "FS.N" is 1 to 40(because this is cam movement). And it should be designated properly when it comes to Wait and Pattern (usually 200-350; and maximum 512). Special caution should be taken because it becomes the actual speed in operation.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "Spd" and press 3 digits. For instance, 080 for designating 80 rotations.
     e. Stitch : This designates stitch number to be used. "F8" key designates the stitch value at knitting mode.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "Sti" and press 2 digits(01-80).
     f. Dir : This designates rotation direction, and special caution should be taken.
     "F" : This designates start, rubber, leg, foot, except heel and toe knitting.
     "U" : This stand for UP. This designates heel and toe up movements.
     "D" : This stand for DOWN. This designates heel and toe down movements.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "Dir" and press SET key. Then rotation directions alternate.
     * Designate "U" for heel and toe up movements and "D" for heel and toe down movements.
     * Whether to correct the direction or not is asked twice because it is an important information.

     (2)Ringle Movement : This designates movements of main yarn, doors, rubber yarn related cam(rubber yarn, scissors, roller, center)

     | [1]This indicates main yarn R1, R2, R3...R8. [2]This designates movements of IN/ OUT. Press SET key, the IN/OUT can be switched. [3]Needle designates IN/OUT movement position. Press number key, then the value is input. And press SET key to complete.

     (3)Color Yarn : This designates movements of yarn of each F and Pile HEAD.

     | [1]This indicates each F and Pile HEAD. [2]This designates movements of IN/ OUT. Press SET key, the IN/OUT can be switched. [3]In yarn OUT, all yarn of corresponding F is out ; in yarn IN, only yarn #1 moves. Needle designates IN/OUT movement position. Press number key, then the value is input. And press SET key to complete.

     [ For Special POS. Data ]
     If position value of ringle and color yarn is "999", start with the designated movement, regardless of position. Accordingly, in chain step 1, values are already set, depending on the requirement.

     (4)Others : This designates DP, SDC, OIL, D.A, S.O.
     DP : This indicates Down-picker.
     SDC :This indicates foot pattern knitting.
     OIL :This indicates oil pump operation.
     D.A :This indicates Double-welt suction movement.
     S.O :This indicates sock exit movement.
     How to Correct
     Place cursor at "ETC-act", and press 1 (DP on, off), 2 (SDC on, off), 3 (Oil on, off), 4 (D.A on, off), 5 (S.O on, off).

     2) Fixed Selection Data
     This designates movements of air cam and actuator that are needed for machine operation. It can use 40 data from 1 to 40, and it usually uses 38, 39, 40 as the movement for Q＊rtn (re-start). 1 to 37 are used for normal movement.
     And this data can designate a total of 28 air cam movements per actuator.

     | An English name of air cam appears. Cam number. 3 digits. Press SET key. In/Out. Press SET key Movement position. Designate angle in even numbers. 3 digits. Press SET key.

     b. Check blade after actuator replacement.
     If there is a problem, replace the blade. And check coil and replace it, if necessary.
     c. Check cable Check cable, using other F cables. If necessary, replace the cable.

     -2-In case of mis-indicating is made even after actuator and blade are in good condition

     a. Adjust the actuator value of corresponding F.
     - Refer to adjustment function of basic position (needle) in editing mode.
     - Turn the machine, using the handle, and check in/out. If necessary, adjust the actuator.
     b. Adjust F-Time setting of actuator.
     - Refer to F-Time setting function in setting mode.
     - usually 2 to 4 (This applies to the entire actuator.)
     c. Check Jack : Check Jack, and normalize the function if there is a problem.
     d. Check needle : Check needle, and normalize the function if there is a problem.
     e. Check yarn

     (2) In case rubber yarn is easily come out,

     -1-Check the movements of rubber yarn, roller, scissors, blade in check mode.
     - If there is a problem with mechanism and replace it.
     - If not operational, replace the fuse of corresponding PCB.

     -2- Check rubber yarn, roller, scissors, blade movement and the movement position in rubber In/Out.
     If there is a problem with In/Out position, adjust the position, using rubber related editing function that is found in basic needle position correction function of editing mode.

     (3)In case there is a problem with main yarn movement and replacement position,

     -1- Check corresponding main yarn movement in check mode.
     If not operational : replace fuse of corresponding PCB.
     If not operational after the fuse replacement : replace PCB for main yarn and air cam.

     -2- If there is a problem with In/Out, adjust the position, using main yarn In/Out position correction function that is found in basic needle position correction function of "editing mode".

     (4)In case there is a problem with size (stitch)
     - Check stitch motor : Check stitch mechanism.
     - It is moved to basic position (sensor) in initial Power On.
     - If not operational, Check PCB for rubber and stitch, and replace fuse and PCB. Check DIP S/W.

     (5) Rubber roller malfunction
     - Check rubber motor : Check movement in check mode.
     - Adjust rubber motor speed : Refer to rubber stitch speed in setting mode.
     - Check PCB for rubber and stitch, and replace fuse and PCB.

     (6)In case there is a problem with change in encoder value,
     - If the encoder value is not correct, the basic movement of controller goes wrong. Check the following.
     Check if the numbers operate properly when the machine is turned by handle at zero point setting mode of setting mode.
     - If there is a problem, refer to zero point setting mode and check.
     Check encoder bundle and gear, coupling and cable.
     - In case it is still not operational, replace CPU.

     (7)In case there is a problem with a movement,
     - Check if encoder value (indicated in "X" position) in editing screen changes.
     - Check the length of chain step decreases properly.
     - Controller proceeds all the movements based on encoder movement. Therefore, if the encoder value is not correct, the basic movement goes wrong. Check the value first.

     Note for A/S
     (1) In case of CPU replacement

     -1-If CPU board is replaced for its malfunction, it should be replaced according to the following.

     a. 2 ROMs in original board should be moved to a new CPU board
     If this is not possible even after the board replacement, re-input all the data that includes "basic data" file, "F-S", "chain", "Jacquard", "pattern".
     After the re-input, check setting functions of "zero point setting", "rubber roller" and "stitch motor" and set them.
     b. Encoder zero point should be reset. (Refer to zero point setting mode.)
