Yarn field table in the Yarn Field Allocation dialog box

Structure and columns of the yarn field table

Table header:

1st row: all the symbols for identification of the table columns
2nd row: Default settings for the respective column (settings from machine related file globalparameters.mdv / globalparameters_B.mdv / globalparameters_xxx.mdv))

The default settings are used for all Yarn fields without specifications.

Zooming the tables with the / (divided) and x (times) keys of the numeric keypad
Via a selection menu in the 1st line of the table header, the columns can be displayed / hidden.

No.	Function		Meaning
1			Default columns of the yarn field table : These columns cannot be hidden.
Yarn carrier section
2	Yarn Carrier Type	Define the type of the yarn carrier to be used
	Multi-system Knitting	Define the number of yarn carriers and the knitting sequence per yarn field : One yarn field is generated for each yarn carrier field Knitting process: even (=): The yarn carriers, and with it the bobbins, will be used as evenly as possible. : Empty strokes may result! optimized (~): The yarn carriers will be used unequally but with carriage strokes as less as possible. : The system allocation will be calculated for each stroke. This results in an optimized running time. This setting does not take effect with: Knitting areas within or before the start, e.g. knitting-in before start Areas with CA's Areas with Jacquard Generators k&w pattern
	System sequence	Allocate an existing system sequence with the desired number of yarn carriers to a jacquard area. : Select the system sequence according to the number of systems (type of machine) and to the number of colors in the jacquard area.
	Mirrored system sequence	Use the allocated system sequence in mirrored manner. : The home position of the yarn carriers and the carriage direction will be mirrored.
	Plating	Define the number of plating yarn carriers per yarn field : 4 plating yarn carriers at the maximum are allowed per yarn field.
	Combine Yarn Carriers	Combine the yarn carriers of different yarn fields according to the setting : Not possible when using CAs or knitting sequences.
	Swivel	Definition for the behavior of the intarsia yarn carriers at the color field border
Miscellaneous section
3	Clamp Yarn Carrier		Specification for the yarn carrier, when it is to be clamped and cut after knitting its yarn field.
	Open clamp after ...		Specification for the yarn carrier, after how many pattern rows the yarn can be released from the clamp.
	SEN Edge and Waiting Position		Specifications for positioning the yarn carrier during the knitting Stop at the SEN edge Parking (waiting position) at the fabric selvedge with an additional distance (needles).
	Allocate Yarn Carrier to one System		Selection of a knitting system for the selected yarn field : The yarn carrier is knitted always in the same system, i.e. the system specification changes depending on the carriage stroke direction.

Change the sorting of the columns:

You can change the sorting of all columns.
In the table header of the desired column click on the symbol for the identification of the column and the arrangement will be changed. The arrangement will be changed again by clicking once more.
