TEXTILE MACHINE WITH MULTIPLE WORK STATIONS AND METHOD FOR MONITORING A TEXTILE MACHINE WITH MULTIPLE WORK STATIONS

Method for monitoring a textile machine having a plurality of workstations and a textile machine having a plurality of workstations, more particularly spinning positions, the textile machine having: a textile machine control unit, which is designed to capture different production figures of the individual workstations and to check whether the production figures exceed specified limit values; an input unit for inputting the limit values and selecting at least one production figure to be checked out of the set of production figures to be checked; and an indicating unit, which is connected to the textile machine control unit in order to optically output the result of the check of the at least one selected production figure to be checked for exceeding the allocated, specified limit value. In order to provide a method for monitoring a textile machine having a plurality of workstations and a textile machine having a plurality of workstations, said method and said textile machine enabling quick detection and identification of workstations whose production figures exceed specified limit values, the indicating unit has a plurality of signal units, which are arranged on the textile machine control unit and/or the workstations in question, are associated with the individual workstations and are designed in such a way that the result of the check of the at least one selected production figure to be checked for exceeding the allocated, specified limit value is indicated by means of different light signals.
