DesignaKnit is able to calculate whether the total memory required will fit into the knitting

machine memory. If there is insufficient memory a message is shown. If downloading a batch,

then some patterns will have to be removed from the batch.

It is also possible that one large pattern is too large for the machine memory - in which case

DesignaKnit will give a message saying how many sections it must be divided into and asking

which of those sections you want to download. Dividing into sections is done automatically - you

do not have to decide how to divide the pattern. When a section number is chosen, a message

shows how many rows must be knitted before the next section needs to be downloaded.

Interactive Knitting will give a message reminding when the current section has been knitted and

the next section must be downloaded.

Preparing for Interactive Knitting

The manual and help for interactive knitting are available from the Help menu in the Interactive

Knitting section of DesignaKnit: please see those in order to find out about the general principles

of interactive knitting. Only points that are specific to this type of cable link and knitting machine

are included in the present document.

Whatever the model of Brother electronic knitting machine, it is necessary to select the pattern

number on the knitting machine console. The downloaded pattern number will be in the range

901 to 998. For the KH900, KH930, KH940, and KH950i, the pattern numbers will be the same

as they appeared in DesignaKnit, because an entire batch is downloaded together in one

operation with the pattern numbers already defined.

For the KH965i and KH970, the knitting machine assigns its own 900 series number - it gives the

next available 900 series number to each downloaded pattern, so they are likely to end up with

different numbers from those shown in DesignaKnit earlier.

For the KH965i and KH970 care must be taken to delete other 900 series patterns periodically,

or before downloading a particularly large pattern. When working out if a pattern will fit into the

machine memory, DesignaKnit assumes that no other patterns are using up memory. For other

models of machine, all other 900 series patterns are automatically replaced by the new batch of

downloaded patterns so there is no need to delete anything.

Interactive knitting may be done using the USB Brotherlink 1 on some machines - see the

section titled "Interactive Knitting with KH940 or KH950i" below. The electronic design of other

machines means that interactive knitting is not possible with the USB Brotherlink 1.

When starting to work the first preselect row for a new stitch pattern, and the carriage is moved

for the first time with the KC setting, it is necessary to move it past the further turn mark in order

for the machine to start selecting needles and to start incrementing the electronic row count on

the machine. This is not necessary for subsequent carriage passes.

Preselection

Except when using the garter carriage, Brother knitting machines preselect needles for the

following pass of carriage. Each pass of the carriage knits the pattern that was defined by the

previous pass, and also selects needles for the following pass. When the amber traffic light

button is clicked to prepare to start knitting, the following dialogue appears:
