If you hear a constant beep or no beep at all for a full
360° rotation of the handwheel, this indicates a failed
test and the machine should be inspected by a qualified
Baby Lock repair technician.

“Manual” menu screen or the “Back” button to return

X Motion Sensor Test
Use the X Motion Sensor test to verify functionality of
the “X” stitch regulator encoder (the encoder mounted
at the rear of the carriage). As you slowly move the
carriage left and right you should hear a pulsing “beep”
that pulses faster as you move faster. A solid beep, no
beep, or periods of irregular beeping (with constant
motion) indicate a problem with the Carriage Stitch
Regulator Assembly (X-Motion). The most likely
cause of a problem is a stitch regulator wheel that is not
making consistent contact with the track. Check the
spring tension on the sensor assembly on the carriage
to assure that it will easily return to the fully extended
position after being compressed. Also assure that the
track is straight with no dips or indentations and that
it is clean and free of contamination. Other causes are
an unplugged or damaged cable or possibly an issue
with the main control board.

Motor Speed Sensor Test
The “Speed” Sensor test can help you determine
whether or not there is a problem with the Baby Lock
Crown Jewel speed sensor. Before performing this test,
remove the bobbin case and the top thread. Press the
“Start” button and the handwheel and needle bar will
begin moving slowly rotating. The white box will show
a number that should stabilize at 100 if the sensor is
functioning properly. Pressing “Start” again will stop
the machine.
