Yarn processing system
First Claim
1. A yarn processing system including a textile machine, and accessory equipment arranged along yarn channels which extend towards said textile machine, the system further including a computerised control and monitoring network arrangement comprising:
- network participating electronic devices arranged along said yarn channels for cooperating with a yarn or yarn handling components along said yarn channels;
at least one control unit for emitting or receiving messages to and from said network participating electronic devices;
at least one DC power supply connected via a conductive part of at least one DC power supply line to said network participating electronic devices and to said control unit; and
message transmission paths interlinking said control unit and said network participating electronic devices, wherein said message transmission paths are provided as a common message transmission bus which is constituted by the conductive part of the DC power supply line, and wherein said messages are carried on said conductive part by frequency modulated radio frequency carrier waves.
