1. General
This manual contains important information on the safe and correct use of the “DACIII” (Dürkopp Adler Control) new-generation controller.
Screen images in this brief description
The symbol display on the various screens depends on the s ewing machine’s equipment and settings. The screen images illustrated in this brief description may therefore not always correspond exactly with the screens appearing in the controller display.
Operating terminal with graphic user guide
The operating terminal is fitted with an LCD display and a keyboard. The user guide employs only internationally intelligible symbols, supplemented with textual information in the selected language. The various symbols are arranged in groups in the menu structure of the sewing and test programs. Simplicity of operation ensures rapid familiarisation.
Ease of programming
99 freely programmable pocket programs are available to the user, which can be combined with any number of seam patterns. 20 pocket sequences. Each pocket s equence can be composed of a maximum of 8 pocket programs in any order. On the “slanting-pocket version” of the class 745-34-2 all practical angles can be programmed by the operator, who can thus dispense with the need to spend time and effort readjusting the corner blades and programming seam displacements.
Setting and test programs
The MULTITEST comprehensive testing and monitoring system is integral to the DACIII control. A microcomputer carries out the control functions, monitors the sewing process and displays incorrect operations and faults.
Errors and test results are shown in the LCD display. If the machine is operating normally the display shows information relating to operation and sewing. In the event of an operating error or fault the function sequence is interrupted. The display indicates the cause by means of the appropriate error symbol. In most cases the error symbol disappears once the error has been rectified. In some cases the main switch must be switched off for safety reasons when the error is rectified.
Special programs facilitate mechanical settings and enable receiver and transmitter elements to be rapidly tested without additional measuring devices.
Memory dongle
The dongle is used to memorize sewing programs and machine parameters and to transfer these data to other sewing units.

CAUTION: danger of breakage
It is essential for the folder station to be swivelled out for the light barriers to be adjusted.
Swivel out the folder station 1.
Lay material under the feed clamps.
Run the test program. Close the flap clamp and folding plates, the feed clamps descend.
Pull the feed clamps forwards.
Align the light barriers to the centre of the reflecting foils 2. The area from seam start to seam end must be checked on the clamp. Orange LED: on = reflection available
off = no reflection Green LED: on = stable switching signal If the green LED does not shine, the light-barrier should be cleaned, readjusted, replaced or a new reflecting foil should be fitted.
Proceed as follows:
- Attach a reflecting strip 2 on the left and on the right over the
whole length so that a strip of approx. 2 mm remains uncovered in the middle.
- Push the feeding clamps to the back until they are centrally
underneath the light barriers.
- Loosen screws 3 and align the light barriers to the strip of the
reflecting foils 2. Tighten screws 3.
- Push the feeding clamps in the rear and front position and check
the alignment of the light barriers.

7.4.1 Displaying the program version and checksum
This program tests the microcomputer’s read-only memory (ROM).
Program version
Where program versions are of the same class and have the same code letter the higher version replaces all lower versions.
Checksum
The checksum is only intended for factory servicing. It enables our specialists to establish whether the controller’s program memory (EPROM) contains the whole program with no errors.
To leave the test program press function key F1.
Hint:
Verifying the checksum takes some considerable time.

7.4.2 Testing RAM (Random-Access Memory)
This program tests the microcomputer’s working memory (RAM).
Press OK to run the test program. The test result appears in the display.
Display Explanation
RAM OK random-access memory is operating perfectly
RAM ERROR error in random-access memory
Hint:
If the message RAM ERROR occurs during the RAM test, the control must be replaced.

7.4.3 Selecting input elements
This program adjusts the input elements.
CAUTION:
The input elements are factory-set with great care. Adjustment and correction may only be undertaken by trained service personnel.
Press OK to run the test program.
Use the key to select between the basic module and the CAN node.
Enter the code number of the required input element on the decimal keypad. The code numbers are the abbreviations used in the circuit diagram (see table below).
The display shows the circuit-diagram designation and the switching status of the input element selected (e.g. “+S17"). The display changes if the switching status of the input element is altered.
A switching status of ”-" means:
proximity switch = metal in front of the switch reflecting light barrier = reflection
Move the input element until the display shows the required switching status.
To leave the test program press function key F1.

tested simultaneously.
Caution: danger of injury !
Do not reach into the machine while it is running and the function
of the output elements is under test.
Press Enter to run the test program.
Use the decimal keypad to select between single mode and multi-mode .
1 = single mode: only one output element
is tested.
2 = multi-mode: a group of output elements
is tested.
Press the “F5” key to switch from DACIII control to the output elements of the CAN node.
DACIII
CAN 1
DACIII = maximum of 16 outputs from YC001 to YC016
CAN 1 = maximum of 56 outputs from YC101 to YC156
