Supported machine models
JANOME Embroidery Software supports the
following machine models:
MC11000, MC10001, and MC10000 machines
can be connected by cable directly to your PC.
See Connecting to your machine
MC10000 V2.2 or earlier machines must be
upgraded to Version 2.21. Visit our website at
http://www.janome.com/ to download the
necessary upgrade.
The MC9700, MC9500, MC300E and MC350E
machines do not support direct connection but
they do read ATA PC cards.
The MC200E machine does not support direct
connection but the machine does read USB
sticks.
The MB-4 machine supports direct connection.
You can download designs to the machine's
internal memory, or to an ATA Card or USB stick
attached to the machine. Direct connection for
the MB-4 machine is, however, only available in
the JANOME Digitizer MB product level.
With both EasyDesign and EasyEdit, JANOME
Embroidery Software is able to automatically
detect which type of supported machine is
currently connected to the PC USB port. The
Machine menu items are determined by the type
of machine connected to the PC. If no machine is
detected, all menu items will be grayed out. Your
distributor will advise you about supported
machine types. See also

Chapter 25 Reading and Writing Design Files

Supported storage devices

Besides USB connection, you can write to ATA PC
card – 'Flash Memory' – in a similar way as you
would save to floppy disk. The ATA PC card is a
PCMCIA standard PC memory card that is used for
storing designs in JEF format to be read/written
from/to machine. The ATA PC card is designated as
a drive in your computer. The drive designation
may become E: or F: or some other letter. After
writing your design, you simply insert the card into
the ATA PC card slot of your machine (if
supported), and read the design.
Precautions using ATA PC cards
It is recommended to save data stored in the
machine's built-in memory to hard disk or
ATA PC card to prevent accidental loss of data
due to improper operations or malfunctions.
If an ATA PC card is formatted on PC or on your
machine, all information on the card will be lost.
Check the contents of any used cards before
formatting them.
Only use ATA PC cards supplied by JANOME or
SanDisk CompactFlash with ATA PC card
adapter for updating the system program of
JANOME MemoryCraft. Memory capacity should
be 8Mb or more.
Note If your computer is a laptop, there is a slot
where you can insert the ATA PC card and its
adapter directly. If you have a desktop computer,
you will need an ATA PC card reader/writer
connected to a USB port.
USB memory sticks
The latest machine models can read from and write
to USB memory sticks. These are very convenient
portable memory devices which can hold large
amounts of data in a small 'stick'.
Splitting large files
JANOME MemoryCraft machines originally had a
limitation in receiving only up to approx. 32,000
stitches at a time. Newer machines will accept up
to approx. 64,000 stitches. MC11000 can accept
up to 100,000 stitches. The MB-4 machine can
accept up to 200,000 stitches.
