the Select Hoop Sections dialog box
appears, allowing you to select the pattern
sections to be written in the available

The progress bar at the top of the dialog box
shows the available space on the card as
you select pattern sections to be written to

which exceed the size limit, the space used
appears in red.

button is available only when a section is
selected and the space on the card is
sufficient to receive the selected patterns.)

chine.

Note:

• Since original cards are erased

completely before patterns are written to
it, it is useful to keep a copy with the
contents of each card in the card folder
that comes with the software so that you
can easily recover the files that were on
the card.

• To check the contents of the original card,

open the Browse dialog box, and then

click

, which appears at the top of the

list in the Browse window. The patterns
saved on the inserted card appear in the
available patterns list.

• Do not remove the card or unplug the USB

cable while patterns are being written to
the card (while the LED indicator is
flashing).
