  • Page 21: Automatic Adaptation Of Control Parameters To The Machine Speed

    Operation Automatic adaptation of control parameters to the machine speed One of the main features of the SMART WARP system is the possibility of programming 2 different sets of control parameters (P_SLOW and P_FAST) and automatically switching from one set to the other depending on the status of two external input signals, provided by the textile machine (SLOW EXT and FAST EXT).
