Settings in Embroidery Edit There are two ways to change your settings; 1. Default Settings: Settings made in Default Settings will be saved, even when turning your machine off. The default setting becomes active when you start a new session or restart your machine. 2. Temporary Settings: Settings made in Temporary Settings will be reset at the start of a new project in Help Center or start of a new sewing session. When turning your machine off, all changes made in Temporary Settings will be reset to default. Changes made in Temporary Settings are shown under Active Features in the Information Area. ActivStitch™ Technology When the ActivStitch™ technology feature is selected your creative icon™ will automatically choose the best way to control the embroidery upper thread based on the design and the selected settings: thread metering or thread tension. For best embroidery results we strongly recommend that you keep this setting selected and select the spring foot for embroidery foot type. When the ActivStitch™ technology feature is selected thread metering will be used when the spring foot is selected as the embroidery foot unless e.g. the active color block indicates a felting color block or a cutwork needle color block in the color block list. When the ActivStitch™ technology feature is deselected and/or embroidery foot type is set for floating foot, thread tension will be used for all designs and settings. For some specific special techniques and accessories that cannot be embroidered with thread metering, the ActivStitch™ technology feature needs to be deselected. 1.
