Devout(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8);

Parameter 1-8:

Integer 16 Bit

Parameter

Comment

1

Device (1 = Feed wheel EFS)

 

2

0 = Initializing

Must be executed before START.

1 = Working thread tension

Does not need to be activated.

2 = Reciprocation tension (with returning) On/Off

Must be activated with each change of the reciprocation tension

3 = Reciprocation tension

 

4 = Yarn tension reduction On/Off

Must be activated only once after the start.

5 = Yarn tension reduction

 

6 = Winding number

Is effective only after SP1 and new threading-up of the EFS

100 = Calibrating

 

3

Address / Group

0= all

1= Group 1

2= Group 2

3= Group 3

4= Group 4

5= Group 5

6= Group 6

 

Group 0 is only used for initialization and calibration Otherwise, the group is to be addressed with the command.

Value (see the Parameter 2 function)

Working thread tension by N/mm

0= Off / 1= On

Reciprocation tension by N/mm

0= Off / 1= On

v = 5-400 (corresponds to 0.5 cN - 40,0 cN)

Syntax:

DEVOUT(1,0,0,v,v,v,0,0);

Example:

DEVOUT(1,0,0,60,50,70,0,0);

This command must be executed by all means after switching on the machine to establish the communication with the EFS devices properly.
Therefore, start always with SP1 after switching on.

When initializing, values for the yarn tension are specified

Without a specification of values, the yarn tension would collapse to 0.5 cN. The specification of a start value prevents the yarn tension from collapsing briefly when starting with SP1.

Syntax:

DEVOUT(1,2,n,v,0,0,0,0);

Example:

DEVOUT(1,2,1,1,0,0,0,0);

In case of a change of the yarn tension in the reciprocation mode, the reciprocation tension must always be activated previously.

I.e. the two commands are always indicated together in this order:
100 DEVOUT(1,2,1,1,0,0,0,0); C Reciprocation tension ON
101 DEVOUT(1,3,1,70,0,0,0,0); C With group 1 the reciprocation tension is set to 7 cN
