Abstract： Aiming at the defects of the traditional batch dyeing machine controller such as unfriendly human-computer interaction，single control function，deficient network interconnection and so on，a new batch dyeing machine controller scheme was put forward on the embedded technology. The embedded Linux was taken as operating system for controller，ARM chip was choosed as CPU of a modular controller and peripheral circuit  was designed based on cabinet requirements，QT was used to design controller interface and implementing touch screen display. The results of field operation show that the human-computer interaction，control function，network interconnection of controller is consummated，and the capability of dyeing machine controller is greatly improved.
