JANOME Embroidery Software Instruction Book
JANOME Embroidery Software Full Kit is shipped
with a USB security dongle. Each dongle has a
unique serial number and identity code so your
system can be uniquely recognized. The security
device plugs into a USB port on your computer. If
your computer does not have a USB port, you will
need to install a USB card. Parallel port dongles are
not supported.
Warning The dongle is the most important and
valuable part of your system and should be treated
with care. Always store it in a safe place when not
in use. The dongle is guaranteed against defects in
material and workmanship – under normal use and
service when properly installed – for a period of 90
days from the date of delivery. If it is faulty, it may
be exchanged. If it is physically damaged, return it
to your distributor and a replacement can be
purchased. However, in case of loss or theft, you
will need to purchase an entire JANOME
Embroidery Software replacement system. For this
reason, you should consider insuring your dongle.
Upgrading dongles
If you are upgrading from an earlier version of
JANOME Digitizer software, you will need to
upgrade the previous dongle using the 'upgrade
dongle' from the Upgrade Kit. Follow the dongle
upgrade process after the computer is rebooted in
order to transfer serial number and identity code
from the old dongle to the new. While JANOME
Embroidery Software now only uses USB dongles,
you can upgrade from older-style parallel dongles
as well as older USB dongles. See
