with this machine. When the machine is used to save a file with any extension, it is saved as a ".pmp" data
file.
• Using data other than that created using this machine or the machine which create ".pmu" data file, may
cause the machine to malfunction.
■ Types of USB Devices/Media that Can Be Used

specifications.

Note
• Some USB media may not be usable with this machine. Please visit our website for more details.
• The access lamp will begin blinking after inserting USB devices/media, and it will take about 5 to 6
seconds to recognize the devices/media. (Time will differ depending on the USB device/media).
• To create file folders, use a computer.
■ Precautions on Using the Computer to Create and Save Data
• If the name of the stitch data file/folder cannot be identified, for example, because the name contains special
characters, the file/folder is not displayed. If this occurs, change the name of the file/folder. We recommend
using the 26 letters of the alphabet (uppercase and lowercase), the numbers 0 through 9, "-", and "_".
• Stitch data in a folder created in USB media can be retrieved.
