USING THE CAMERA TO CONNECT PATTERNS
Instead of using thread marks, the camera can be used to connect patterns.
An area of 17 cm × 33 cm (6-1/2 inches × 13 inches) can be embroidered when the camera is used to connect
patterns. Select the appropriate frame depending on the size of the embroidery. We recommend using the large
embroidery frame (200 mm × 360 mm (7-7/8 inches × 14 inches)) when using the camera to connect patterns.
Examples of Connected Patterns
Two patterns can be connected by selecting the
reference point and reference edge of each pattern so
that they can be aligned using the camera. When
connecting patterns, the reference edge of each pattern
will be along a single straight line.
(Example)

In order to understand how to connect patterns, first try
following the procedure outlined in “Practice
(Connecting Three Patterns)” on page 13.
Note
• When installing the embroidery frame (small) (40
mm × 60 mm (1-1/2 inches × 2-3/8 inches), cap
frames, cylinder frame or the round frames, you can
not connect patterns using this function.
• Split (Large-size) embroidery patterns cannot be
used with this function.
• You can not connect patterns using this function
while the machine is set to the Link mode.
