When You Have a Question, This May Help You

TECHNICAL TERMS:

■ DST

This is the extension of Tajima data file (*.dst) that is
one of the data formats of embroidery patterns.
Tajima data does not contain color information,
therefore the embroidery machine automatically
assigns colors when a Tajima (.dst) file is loaded.
(Refer to "Colors of Tajima (.dst) embroidery data"
on page 159.)

■ Wiper

This is the mechanism for pulling the thread. The
wiper pulls the thread when the needle threader is
used.
The wiper also pulls the thread from the material
when the machine trims the thread. This makes
trimming threads after embroidering un-necessary.
(Refer to page 52.)

PATTERNS:

Following patterns can be processed by the
machine to embroider.
- Embroidery data with *.pes, *.phc or *.dst
format.
Use USB media to transfer the data to the
machine.
Using the USB cable, the data can be
transferred from the PC to the machine.
- Optional embroidery cards
- Embroidery patterns created by digitizing
software program
- The patterns saved on USB media by the
machine
EMBROIDERING TUTORIAL

EMBROIDERING:

■ Customize the embroidery colors

- Use the thread color function by selecting either
64 colors or 300 colors, or by setting the custom
thread color table on the pattern editing screen.
For more details, refer to "Creating a custom
thread table" on page 132 and "Choosing a color
from the custom thread table" on page 135.
■ Resume an unfinished pattern from
the last time the machine was
switched off.
- The machine remembers the pattern and the
position even after turning off the power. And the
machine can resume the embroidery when the
machine turns on again. (Refer to "Resume
Embroidering After Turning Off the Machine" on
page 89.)

■ Getting false thread breakage error

- Check that the position of the upper thread is
under the upper thread guide plates. (Refer to
page 49.)
- Check that the position of the upper thread is
around the thread tension disc. (Refer to page 50.)
1 Upper thread guide plates
2 Thread tension disc

■ Thread tension changed suddenly

- Thread is caught on a rough edge of the spool of
upper thread.
- Upper thread is caught under the spool of thread.
- The thread dust or lint is gathered under the
bobbin's tension spring.
