18. Reserving the color for the needle bar
q
When you select a multi-color design, the machine will
automatically assign the thread color to each needle bar.
However, when you are sewing the second pattern that
uses the color same as one of the first pattern used, you
can reserve this color for the needle bar already threaded
with this color.
If the first pattern uses Ivory white thread on needle bar
No.1 and the second pattern uses Ivory white on needle
bar No. 3, reserve Ivory white for needle bar No.1.
w
So you do not need to unthread needle bar No. 1.
Press the function key next to "Yes", the color setting
window will open.
Select needle bar No. 1 by pressing the function key next
to the needle bar icon No. 1.

pallet and press the OK key to confirm your setting.
To cancel the changes of setting for the selected needle

bar, press the function key next to the DFT icon.
