SET Menu

You can change the pre-set machine settings and make manual adjustments to the
automatic functions in the SET Menu. Open the menu by pressing the SET Menu
button and select the setting you wish to adjust by pressing the up/down arrow
buttons. To activate the function, use the OK button to place an X in the box. To
cancel the function, press the OK button again to leave the box empty. To change
the number settings use the right/left arrow buttons. Press the SET Menu button
again to leave the SET Menu.
Note: When a number is set to default the gures will be black. If you change the number the
gures will be inverted on a black background.
Thread tension
Your machine will automatically set the best thread tension for the selected stitch
and fabric. Use the left/right arrow buttons if you need to adjust the thread
tension.
In Sewing Mode the changes only affect the selected stitch. If another stitch is
selected or the same stitch is selected again, the value is reset to the default value.
In Embroidery Mode the value is reset to the default value when a new design is
loaded. The setting will go back to default when the machine is turned off.
Presser foot pressure
Use the left/right arrow buttons if you want to adjust the presser foot pressure
for the selected stitch. The value can be adjusted between 0 and 8.5 in steps of
0.5. Your manual setting will be cancelled when you select another stitch or turn
off the machine.
Note: When you save a stitch or program in My Stitches the setting of the presser foot pressure
is also saved.
Pivot height
If Free Motion is activated or if the machine is in Embroidery Mode you will be
able to set the height of the presser foot pivot position. The oat/pivot position
can be raised or lowered in 15 steps by pressing the left/right arrow buttons. Your
setting for the actual mode will be saved even when the machine is turned off.
Free Motion: Skipped stitches can occur if your fabric moves up and down with
the needle as you are stitching. Lowering the pivot height will reduce the space
between the presser foot and the fabric and eliminate the skipped stitches.
Note: Be careful not to reduce the pivot height too much. The fabric must still move freely under
the presser foot.
Embroidery Mode: Some embroideries may build up under the presser foot. If
there is not enough space between the presser foot and the embroidery, the top
thread will form loops on the underside of the embroidery. Increase the pivot
height in small steps until the embroidery moves freely under the presser foot.
Sensor Foot Auto
Use the OK button to turn on or off the automatic pivot function for lifting the
presser foot for example when stopping with the needle down. The setting will go
back to default when the machine is turned off.
FIX Auto
(Only in Sewing Mode)
Use the OK button to turn on or off the automatic FIX function in the
beginning of each stitch. Your setting will be saved even when the machine is
turned off.
