34 Buttonholes
Buttonhole corrections (all types)
The following adjustments can be made to a buttonhole
and will remain in effect until the machine is turned off.
Buttonhole too wide
· to reduce the width of the
buttonhole, reduce the stitch width
Bead density
· increase or reduce the stitch length
by approximately 2 steps to achieve
the desired effect
Balancing the beads
· balance will influence the bead and
the eye density
· balance affects both beads and the
eye
Buttonhole in Long Term Memory
Permanent adjustments can be made using the Setup
program (see pages 55–67).
One buttonhole of each type may be
saved in special buttonhole memory
banks. This does not affect the
standard memory of the machine.
Long term saving of buttonhole
programs is only possible for
buttonholes originally stitched as
auto-length buttonholes (see pages
30–32)
Open balance screen
· select buttonhole
· touch Balance
· balance ↑ to increase the density
· balance ↓ to reduce the density
· Sew buttonhole until area to be
corrected is reached. Adjust balance.
Continue sewing. The correction
will be incorporated in all subsequent
buttonholes.
Recommendation:
· always test sew on the piece of fabric
you intend to use
Delete balance adjustments
· press clr or touch reset
For additional information about
buttonholes, refer to the
artista 180 Sewing Manual, pages 21–28.
Once the length of the buttonhole is
determined, the programmed
buttonhole can be saved using the
store function on the toolbar.
