Context menu in embroidery

When touching the Context menu icon (A) a new window appears. The

Context menu changes whether you are sewing, embroidering, etc. It

always refers specifi cally to the menu that you have selected. When

you are on the embroidery page the following menus are active:

Options for messages
When you touch the Options for messages icon you can turn different

messages on or off.

Grid on
If you want more exact positioning of embroideries and stitches in the

hoop you can activate the grid on the workspace. Touch the Grid on

icon and the grid will be displayed, and the icon is shown as actively

selected (dark red).

Current state
If the embroidery process is interrupted or if you want to stop for the

time being, the current stitch number and position can be saved by

touching Current state icon in the Context menu before leaving the

embroidery mode. When touching the icon a pop-up will appear (B).

Touch the Save state icon to save the current position in the hoop under

the name of the present embroidery combination. This current position

will be saved even after switching the machine off. After switching the

machine on again touch the Restore state icon to continue embroidering

at the saved position.

Note: It is only possible to save one current position in the machine.

Move Hoop
When touching the Move hoop icon you can move the hoop to four

different locations: Park position, Sew position, Change bobbin position

and Cut position. Use the Park position when you want to put the

embroidery unit in the carrying case.

The Sew position is for when you want to sew with the embroidery

unit still attached to the machine.

The Change bobbin position moves the hoop as far back as possible

which will make it easier for you to change the bobbin.

If you touch the Cut position icon the hoop will move towards you,

making it easier for you to cut the threads when you are embroidering.
