1. Programming of 739

1.1 Introduction

This programming manual includes instructions for the safe and
economical handling of the new “DAC” (Dürkopp Adler Control) control
system.

Programming convenience

The following functions must be programmed by the user.
–

Display/delete piece counter

–

Sewing motor speed

–

Stitch length

–

Initial bartack

–

Final bartack

–

Initial stitch condensation

–

End stitch condensation

–

Switch thread monitor on/off

Setting and test programmes

The DAC includes the comprehensive functions of the
MULTITEST testing and monitoring software.

The system is controlled by a microcomputer, which also monitors the
sewing process and indicates incorrect operation and errors.

Errors and test results are displayed on a 8-digit LED display with 7
segments. During normal operation, the display shows data regarding
the operation of the unit and the sewing process.

If an error occurs in the operation or the sewing process, the current
function is terminated.

In certain cases the main switch must be switched off in order to
eliminate an error for safety reasons.

Certain error messages are designated for service personnel only.

Special programmes simplify the mechanical configuration and
make it possible to quickly check input and output components without
the need for additional measuring devices.
