Abstract

In the case of a textile machine (1), in particular a spinning machine or winder, comprising a plurality of adjacently arranged workstations (3), which are combined to form multiple sections (2) and each include multiple communication-capable units, wherein the sections (2) each comprise a section control system (13), and wherein the communication-capable units of the workstations (3) of a section (2) are connected to a section bus (15, 16) for communication with the section control system (13), the sections (2) each comprise at least two section busses (15, 16) connected to the section control system (13). A first portion of the communication-capable units of the workstations (3) is connected to a first one (15) of the at least two section busses (15, 16) and a second portion of the communication-capable units of the workstations (3) is connected to a second one (16) of the at least two section busses (15, 16). In the case of a corresponding method for controlling such a textile machine (1), a first portion of the communication-capable units of the workstations (3) communicates via a first one (15) of the at least two section busses (15, 16) with the section control system (13) and/or further communication-capable units of the workstations (3), and a second portion of the communication-capable units communicates via a second one (16) of the at least two section busses (15, 16) with the section control system (13) and/or further communication-capable units of the workstations (3).
