Bank Function Setup - JUKI AMS-221EHL Manual

(3) Bank function setup

The bank function means a function of sewing effected through changeover to a pattern by an external signal,
which is registered in multiple pattern buttons in cases of cassette discrimination and others.
For sewing by the bank function, an external signal input is entered before the feeding frame is lowered at the
time of pedal treading-on. According to the input condition, a maximum of 16 patterns can be used for changeover.
When the bank function is used, the fixed refuge position preset in regard to "5.-(2) Fixed escape position
setting" is automatically enabled.
The reason is that the feeding frame in ordinary operation is made ready at the start of sewing (or the second
origin). This function is always possible if there is only one sewing pattern. In the case of the bank function,
however, the next sewing pattern is not always coinciding with the previous sewing pattern (or the second
origin) at the start of sewing. Therefore, it is necessary to use this refuge position function to secure the same
standby position for the feeding frame.
1. It is not always necessary to set up the memory switch K90 because the fixed refuge position mode is automati-
cally secured for the bank function.
2. The fixed refuge position, defined by the fixed refuge position Coordinate X of Memory Switch K117 and the fixed
refuge position Coordinate Y of Memory Switch K118, is regarded as the standby position of the feeding frame
for the bank function.
In standard setting, the feeding frame stops at the origin because the conditions are set at X:0 and Y:0. An
arbitrary position can be set up with the memory switches K117 and K118.
The bank functions and the input terminals can be set up with the following memory switches:
