Abstract
A control system for a production machine especially a spinning machine has a multiplicity of working stations each of which has at least one sensor to determine an operating parameter and at least one effector for carrying out a control operation. The modules responsive to the sensor signals and the modules for producing commands to the effector are connected together in chains and the one end of each chain is connected to a central unit providing the management circuitry and is capable of initialization of the module chain. Data transmission is effected from module to module along the chain.
