Settings for Yarn Carriers

If a yarn carrier is clicked on, then the corresponding setting options appears in the window to the right.

Set as Used	The yarn carrier is added even though it is not used in the pattern (for example for sequences). The yarn carrier appears in the yarn carrier home position (YG) in Sintral. The yarn carrier can be used for Sintral functions.
Position	Shows the starting position of the corresponding yarn carrier.
Type	Select yarn carrier type Only yarn carrier types of the selected machine are available.
	Automatically	The yarn carrier type is determined by the technical processing.
	Normal	Normal yarn carrier
	Intarsia 1	Intarsia Yarn Carrier Type 1
	Intarsia 2	Intarsia Yarn Carrier Type 2
	Double Arm	Plating with a yarn carrier with two bows for plating yarn and basic yarn with adjustable distance.
	Double Eyelet	Common plating yarn carrier for plating yarn and basic yarn with fixed distance.
	Variable Engaging Width +/- (Ua/b)	Plating with two yarn carriers Following basic yarn in the plating yarn carrier type U+/- with Ua/b > 29 mm. Leading plating yarn in the normal yarn carrier.
	Normal 2 +/- (Ua/b)	Use normal yarn carriers type2. For the combination with intarsia yarn carrier type 1 or type 2. You can change the yarn carrier engaging width for plating. Example: Following basic yarn with Ua/b > 29 mm
	Weft Yarn Qw	Weft yarn carrier W Machine - Weft Yarn Carrier Qw
	Weft Yarn Qt1	Weft yarn carrier with a driving width of 141mm. W Machine - Weft Yarn Carriers Qt1 Qt2 Qt3 The driving width can be modified in the same dialog box further down.
	Weft Yarn Qt2	Weft yarn carrier with a driving width of 161mm. W Machine - Weft Yarn Carriers Qt1 Qt2 Qt3 The driving width can be modified in the same dialog box further down.
	Weft Yarn Qt3	Weft yarn carrier with a driving width of 180mm. W Machine - Weft Yarn Carriers Qt1 Qt2 Qt3 The driving width can be modified in the same dialog box further down.
	Autarkic	Yarn carrier of the ADF machines
Description	Enter the description for the selected yarn carrier.
Pattern Color (After Expanding)	Shows the pattern color of the selected yarn carrier.
Technique Color	Shows the assigned technique color.
Clamping Depth (NCC)	Depending on the yarn, a correction value (NCC) for sinking the clamping needle may be useful in order to clamp of cut it properly. Highest Position: -10 Lowest Position: 10 Example: For a thin or elastic yarn, it may be necessary to withdraw the clamping and cutting needle deeper in order to ensure reliable clamping and cutting. Sink the clamping and cutting needle by 5 steps deeper: NCC=5. Value range: Default Setting: 0 Highest Position: -10 For coarse and less tear-resistant yarns Lowest Position: 10 For fine and elastic yarns
	The yarn carrier is knit-in using the Insert Knitting-in Before Start function. The setting is applied from the Comb, Clamping tab of the Configuration dialog box. The setting can only be modified, if you selected the Free to define (in yarn carrier allocation) option in the Comb, Clamping tab of the Configuration dialog box. Comb, Clamping tab
Knit-in to opposite side	The yarn carrier is knit-in on the opposite side of its home position. The setting is only available, if Detect Knitting-in to Opposite Side Automatically is disabled in the More Settings tab of the Configuration dialog box. Further Settings tab Recommendation: Useful for machines with single-sided clamping and cutting or if a yarn carrier in the pattern knits-in on one side and knits-out on the other.
Stop at:	Stop the yarn carriers at the Shape Edge or SEN Edge.
Engaging Value [mm]	When selecting the Variable Engaging Width +/- (Ua/b) or Normal 2 +/- (Ua/b) yarn carrier type, the engaging width for left and right can be entered.
At the Left (Ua)	Engaging width for the carriage direction to the left
At the Right (Ub)	Engaging width for the carriage direction to the right
Cabinet Width [mm]	Shows the cabinet width of the selected yarn carrier type. The driving width is displayed for the weft yarn carriers Qw, Qt1, Qt2 and Qt3. W Machine - Weft Yarn Carrier Qw W Machine - Weft Yarn Carriers Qt1 Qt2 Qt3
Driving Width [mm]	Driving width of the yarn carrier with weft yarn insert by mm The driving width can be modified for the Weft Yarn Qw yarn carrier type. W Machine - Weft Yarn Carrier Qw W Machine - Weft Yarn Carriers Qt1 Qt2 Qt3
Border Fixation	Select the module for the border fixation. For machines with belt take-down, the border fixation is enabled by default.
Minimum Padding	Enter the quantity of rows after which the upright thread is to be fixed. Value range: 1-999 With a high gauge the value should be low, with a fine gauge correspondingly higher.
Float Fully Fashion Transition	At the fabric end, the yarn carrier is moved to the home position by float. Use case: The weft yarn is too thick for the needle hook gauge. At the fabric end, the yarn carrier is moved to the home position according to the setting in the Yarn Field Allocation. The option takes effect on ff-trans-2_B and Float and Lock.
Go to Shape Edge after EAY/S0Y (YG:nF;)	The yarn carrier will be positioned at the #L and #R counters and follows the shape, with an activated check box.
Exclude from 'Open Clamp' (Y-RALL( n ))	The yarn carrier remains clamped despite Y-RALL, with an activated check box. Activate in case that threads of individual yarn carriers wind around the take-down roller. You control the releasing of the clamp with the entry of Open Clamp After n Rows: in the Open Clamp column of the Color Parameters table. Color Parameters Yarn Carrier Presettings Not for BMS!
Exclude from Clamping (YG:n!;)	With the check box enabled, the yarn carrier will not be clamped but moved to the '!' position. Only ADF!
Feed Wheels	If working with feed wheels is activated in the machine attributes, you can assign a group to the selected yarn carrier here. The creating and managing of the groups takes place in the Group Feed Wheels tab Group Feed Wheels Tab
Group	Assign a feed wheel group to the yarn carrier. All groups previously created in the Group Feed Wheels tab are available for selection.
Type	Shows the feed wheel type of the selected group. You set the feed wheel type in the Group Feed Wheels tab.
YLC	With Yarn Length Control enabled in Configuration -> More Settings, you can assign the corresponding measuring wheel to each yarn carrier. Further Settings tab
Measuring Wheel	Select the corresponding measuring wheel for the yarn carrier.
