- Interactive Knitting with Silver Reed and Windows XP or ME
Some users with Silver Reed machines were experiencing mispatterning when knitting from a computer with Windows XP or ME operating system. This is because Windows background processes were interfering with the signal passed to the knitting machine. In most cases this can be cured by reducing the rate at which the carriage passes across the needle bed, but there may still be occasions when Windows will interrupt the pattern sending, shifting the pattern by one stitch.
DesignaKnit will now warn the user if the carriage has not encountered the expected number of needles when passing across the needle bed. If there is a legitimate reason for this, such as one of the point cams was moved, then the user can ignore the warning, but if the message is unexpected, then the user has the opportunity to check the pattern and make any corrections before moving on.
It should be noted, however that if, when knitting a swatch for example, the number of needles used for the swatch has not been entered correctly in the dialogue box, then this error will occur on every row. - Cable and magnetic switch detection improved.
