El To program a stitch pattern containing numerous straight lines in the pattern design - To program the straight-line portions of the pattern design, use the a key (Line key) to facilitate the programming operation. Example: Program the pattern in the figure below. (1) Press the E key. The work clamp will move to the point of origin (X-0; Y-0), the numeral "0" will be indicated on the STEP display, and the command indicator "F" will illuminate. (2) Operate the direction keys to move the work clamp to the initial stitch position. (3) When the tip of the needle and the initial stitch position Qc on the outline of the needle movement become aligned, press the f.f ] key. Thus, the initial stitch will be programmed. (4) Operate the numeral keys to indicate the proper pitch on the STEP display. (For example, to set the proper stitch length when the actual stitch length is 3 mm, use the numeral keys to indicate "030" on the STEP display.) X If the pitch is not indicated on the STEP display, or if it is less than 0.2 mm or greater than 12.7 mm ("1?7" on the STEP display), it (X-0 • will automatically be set to 2 mm.

To
program
a
stitch
pattern
containing
numerous
straight
lines
in
the

To
program
the
straight-line
portions
of
the
pattern
design,
use
the

operation.
Example:
Program
the
pattern
in
the
figure
below.
(1)
Press
the
E
key.
The
work
clamp
will
move
to
the
point
of
origin
(X-0;
Y-0),
the
numeral
"0"
will
be
indicated
on
the
STEP
display,
and
the
command
indicator
"F"
will
illuminate.
(2)
Operate
the
direction
keys
to
move
the
work
clamp
to
the
initial
stitch
position.
(3)
When
the
tip
of
the
needle
and
the
initial
stitch
position
Qc
on
the
outline
of
the
needle
movement
become
aligned,
press
the
ff
.]
key.
Thus,
the
initial
stitch
will
be
programmed.
(4)
Operate
the
numeral
keys
to
indicate
the
proper
pitch
on
the
STEP
display.
(For
example,
to
set
the
proper
stitch
length
when
the
actual
stitch
length
is
3
mm,
use
the
numeral
keys
to
indicate
"030"
on
the
STEP
display.)
X
If
the
pitch
is
not
indicated
on
the
STEP
display,
or
if
it
is
less
than
0.2
mm
or
greater
than
12.7

direction
keys
to
move
the
work
clamp
to
the
final
stitch
position
on
the
straight
line
portion
of
the
pattern
design.
Note
1
When
more
than
120
stitches
are
required
between
point
®
and
point
®,
the
operation
speed
of
the
work
clamp
will
suddenly
decrease
to
warm
the
operator.
Therefore,
press
the
key
and
then
the
E
key
between
point
®
and
point
®
to
reprogram
the
remaining
stitches
on
the
straight-line
portion
of
the
pattern
design.
(7)
Press
the
C]
key
when
the
tip
of
the
needle
becomes
aligned
with
point
®
on
the
outline
of
the
needle
movement.
Thus,
the
straight-line
portion
from
point
G
to
point
®
will
be
programmed.
(8)
Repeat
the
above
procedure
to
program
the
remaining
straight-line
portions
from
point
3-3
0-4e.
Note
2
For
diagonal
lines,
e.g.
8-4
0,
©-+
0,
there
are
instances

may
not
turn
out
to
be
straight
unless
the

The
work
clamp
will
move
back
to
the
initial
stitch
position.
(11)

R/W
switch
to
write
the
pattern
to
