PROGRAMMING MODE

There are two ways to go from the operating to the programming mode. Press the button

to go to the first group (SPEEDS). Continue pressing this key to step through the

groups or press the button to go to the last changed parameter.

After changing the parameters press the button to return to the operating mode.

A. HOW TO PROGRAM

1. SPEEDS, TIMERS, COUNTERS

Select the parameter group with the button to the desired parameter

group(exampleSPEEDS).

Select the desired parameter ( example SOFTSTART ) by pressing the button.

Change displayed number with ( increase ) or ( decrease ) button.

2. TOGGLE SWITCHES

Select the parameter group “TOGGLE SWITCHES“ with the button.

Select the desired parameter to be changed with the button.

Toggle the desired parameter with the or button.

B. ACCESS TO HIDDEN PARAMETERS

Step 1: Turn power off.

Step 2: Press the and buttons at the same

time.

Step 3: Turn power on while both buttons are pressed.

Step 4: Release the buttons.

The display shows stars (*****) which are counting down.

Step 5: Press the button before the stars disappear.

Step 6: Select the desiredparameter asusual.

EXPLANATION OF PARAMETERS

A. PARAMETERS WITH DIRECT ACCESS

1. SPEEDS (spm,stitchesper minute is the same as R.P.M.)

c. WASTErem (Waste Removal)

Sets the amount of time that the venturi is turned off if the waste removal function is

selected.

Range: 10 to 2500 ms

Steps:10 ms

Default:350ms

d. CUTTER

This sets the amount of time that the scissor or guillotine cutter is on.

Steps:10 ms

Defaultsetting: 80 ms

e. COMPENS. (CUTTERCOMPENSATION)

This parameter is used to compensate for the amount of time needed to fully close a

scissor or guillotine cutter. This parameter needs to be set to the type of cutter being

used so that it will cut accurately at different machine speeds.

g. VENTURI

This parameter sets how the chain cutter can be turned on if a cut was missed at the

end of a cycle. If set to "heel bck" the cutter will start by heeling back on the treadle.

If set to "with eye" the cutter will start by breaking the beam of the electric eye.

energized). The clamp duty cycle should be set at the minimum value required to keep

the solenoid energized. (a) If the duty cycle value is to low the solenoid will vibrate

(this will cause it to make a chattering noise) and the clamp may drop. (b) If the clamp

duty cycle value is to high the solenoid may get hot and the denergize time will greatly

increase.

SECTION III

TEACH-IN MODE

1. SETTING THE NEEDLE-DOWN AND NEEDLE-UP POSITIONS

NOTE:The index signal from the motor must be set prior to setting the needle up and

down positions. ( See systems test section for instruction on setting the index signal ).

a. NEEDLE DOWN

To set the needle down position access the "**** MISC." group of the hidden parameters

then select the "NEED.dwn" parameter. Rotate the hand wheel of the machine until the

needle is in the down position. Press the treadle forward, the machine will make one

revolution then save the needle down position.

b. NEEDLE UP

To set the needle up position access the "**** MISC." group of the hidden parameters

then select the "NEEDLEup" parameter. Rotate the hand wheel of the machine until the

take-up levr is in the top dead center position. Press the treadle foreward, the machine

will make one revolution then save the needle up position.

SECTION IV

TEST MODE

A. BUILT-INTEST PROGRAM

A test program is available to test the major functions for proper operation. To access the pro-

gram press the and buttons simultaneously.

The display will read “SYSTEM TEST“ briefly then "PRESS "SET" !!", after which the following

maybe tested:

1.TREADLE

2.EYEANDINDEXSIGNAL

3.ENCODER

4.MOTORBALANCE

1. Treadle Test

Pressthe button until "TEST TREADLE" will be displayed briefly then " NEUTRAL".

a. Move the pedal from neutral to heel 1 then to heel 2.

The display should show each position.

b. Move the pedal forward slowly. As the pedal is moved, a number (0 to 255) will be displayed.

NOTE: This number is proportional to how far the pedal is moved. The lowest number

should be no more than "8" and the highest number greater than "250".

2. Setting the Index Signal

a. Remove the drive belt.

b. Press the button. The display will read "TEST INDEX" briefly then show a broken line

"-----------". If the eye is uncovered the display will show "------Eye------". Rotate the motor by

hand until the display shows "Index-Eye". Rotate the machine by hand until the needle point is

approximately level with the throat plate on it's downward stroke. replace the belt and tighten

with the machine and motor in this position.

3. Encoder Test

CAUTION: Remove the sewing machine belt. The belt has to be removed because the

motor may not develop sufficient torque to turn the machine.

Pressthe button. The display will read "TEST ENCODER" briefly then "PUSH START

(enc)". Press the button the motor will begin to rotate slowly and the display will read

"PLEASE WAIT !!". After 2 or 3 seconds the motor will stop and the display shows the number

of counts. The number should be between 240 and 260 pls.

ML990-9

3. Motor balance Test

CAUTION: Remove the sewing machine belt.

Press the button. The display will read "CHECK BALANCE" briefly then "PUSH START

(bal)". Press the button the motor will begin to rotate slowly in one direction and then the

other, the display will read "PLEASE WAIT !!". When the motor stops the display will show a

balance number ( 0-255 ). The balance number should be below 10.

NOTE: If the motor is to far out of balance the display may read "DIRECTION FAILED". This

error message will also occur if the motor is unplugged from the control box when the balance is

beingtested.
