TECHNICAL TERMS:
■
DST
This is the extension of Tajima data file (*.dst)
that is one of the data formats of embroidery
patterns. Tajima data does not contain color
information, therefore the embroidery machine
automatically assigns colors when a Tajima
(.dst) file is loaded. (Refer to page 218.)
■
Needle number
The needles are numbered from right to left. The
far right needle is number 1 needle. (Refer to
page 8.)
■
Needle at the “embroidering position”
This is the needle that is placed above the
needle hole in the needle plate. The needle bar
case is moved to position that particular needle
with the next thread color to the “embroidering
position”.
Also when using the needle threader, the needle
that is going to be threaded should be moved to
the “embroidering position”. (Refer to page 61
and page 62.)

■
Wiper
This is the mechanism for pulling the thread.
The wiper pulls the thread when the needle
threader is used.
The wiper also pulls the thread from the material
when the machine trims the thread. This makes
trimming threads after embroidering un-
necessary. (Refer to page 60.)
PATTERNS:
Following patterns can be processed by the
machine to embroider.
- Embroidery data with *.pes, *.phc or *.dst
format.
Use USB media to transfer the data to the
machine.
Using the USB cable, the data can be transferred
from the PC to the machine.
- Optional embroidery cards
- Embroidery patterns created by digitizing
software program
- The patterns saved on USB media by the
machine
EMBROIDERING:
■
Customize the embroidery colors

either 64 colors or 300 colors, or by setting
the custom thread color table on the pattern
editing screen. For more details, see

■

the machine can resume the embroidery
when the machine turns on again. (Refer to
“Resume Embroidering After Turning Off the
Machine” on page 110.)
