JACQUARD AND ADDITIONALS COMMANDS
1000-4999 Line numbers to knit or for jacquard JA1-JA8 Jacquard 1 to 8.
E.g.: JA1=1012(1002-1012) It selects the lines 1002 to 1012 as the sector from where the
departure line 1012 must start It is possible to define max 8 differents JA
FA-FZ Pattern fields A to Z and 0 to 9 They define a F0-F9part of the PA
PA:...; Pattern pack arrangement
PKV:...; Pattern correction front
PK^:...; Pattern correction rear
PM:...; Transmit the pattern to the Machine The PM can be done without creating PA:
Allowed instructions in PM:
JA1-JA8
FA-FZ
F0-F9
N miss-knit
S knit
X does not change the background when overlapping is not allowed in PM
< > repeat to end
<x n> repeat to n
n(x) repeat n times the expression in brackets
: tabulator/starting point
A.YT*I+BGHOWZ Jacquard symbols
X When overlaying the background will not be altered
N No selection. In PA: JA: and PM: it does not allow the needles selection
S Always selected
