Archive of Thread: DAK 8 question Back

5 years ago

Hi there.  I have been working with my new (to me) KH940.  I just received my DAK8 software program and have been viewing the tutorials within it.  When I bought my machine it came with the original DAK floppy disc drive and PPD.  Those had the ability (I think) to be plugged into the KH940.  I can program patterning into the machine by hand but, for the life of me, can't figure out how I transfer anything into the KH940 from this new software other than manually and by working with the knit leader.  Am I missing something or am I correct that this is the way forward?  I don't see anything on the software program that addresses this issue and I haven't been able to see anything here that jumps out as a solution to my question.

 

Thank you very much

Hi Alexis,
Do you have the correct cable for connecting the machine to your computer?
Here are a couple of links
