time.
■ Initializing thread color settings
With the manual color sequence, the thread color
information on the machine can be initialized each time a
new pattern is selected, and then the needle bars can be
assigned. This allows the needle bar settings to be
specified without being affected by the thread color
information from the previous pattern.

Precautions on the manual color sequence

■ When embroidering a pattern containing seven
or more colors
With the manual color sequence, the machine does not
monitor the timing for replacing thread spools. Since the
machine does not automatically stop and no message
indicating that the thread spool be changed appears, as
with the normal needle bar settings, follow the procedure
below to set the machine to stop with thread spools that
must be changed.
