Reserved Needle Bar And Embroidery Speed Settings - Brother 884-T23 Operation Manual

Reserved needle bar and embroidery speed
settings
Normally, the machine automatically assigns thread colors to
the needle bars; however, a specific thread color can be
manually assigned to a certain needle bar. If a needle bar is
reserved, that needle bar is removed from the machine's
automatic assignments and the specified color remains
assigned to it.
By specifically assigning often used thread colors to certain
needle bars, the trouble of changing the thread spools can be
reduced.
Also, the maximum embroidery speed can be specified to the
assigned needle bar. It is useful when you specially set a weak
thread such as a metallic thread to the assigned needle bar.
Memo
• This feature is not accessible through the
embroidering screen.
• You can assign thread colors up to 5 needle bars in
normal mode. When you set [Manual Color
Sequence] to [ON] in settings screen, it is available
to assign up to 6 needle bars. If you assign all the 6
needle bars in the [Manual Color Sequence] mode,
and then you set the machine to the normal mode,
the setting of needle bar 6 is canceled
automatically. (page 60)
Needle bar settings remain until the setting is canceled.
