Stitch Regulation Mode
There are two stitch regulation modes: Cruise and Precision.
To use Cruise stitch regulation
• Touch the
Regulated
button and then touch the
Cruise
button.
After pressing the
Start/Stop
button, the Start stitching indicator in the upper-left
corner of the screen turns gold and the needle begins moving up and down according
to the cruise speed or stitches-per-minute setting.
When moving the fabric, the needle will move according to the stitches-per-inch
setting. Similarly, when the fabric is stopped, the needle will continue moving at the
cruise speed (stitches-per-minute) until you press the
Stop
button on the touchscreen.
The minimum speed of the needle is dependent upon the stitches-per-minute setting
you choose. Baby Lock recommends beginning with a setting of 200. Begin moving the
machine immediately after pressing the
Start/Stop
button to avoid stitching in place
for too long.
QUILTING TIP
: The constant minimum stitching speed featured in the Cruise
stitch regulation is useful when creating sharp points such as the point of a star
or the bottom of a heart.
