Temporary Repair Stops
The temporary repair stop feature lets you insert a marker in the pattern at any stitch
number. This feature is used in the following situation.
•
When sewing, you notice that the embroidery on one head is
unsatisfactory (maybe due to running out of bobbin or poor tension).
At this time, you do not wish to stop and automend that head
(perhaps it is necessary to pull out some stitches on that garment).
Instead, you want to turn off the affected head, then complete
sewing on that garment during the next run of the pattern.
•
When sewing is stopped, the BENS lets you insert a temporary repair
stop marker in the pattern at the stitch where you want to turn a
sewing head back on in the next run of the pattern.
You can insert up to 10 temporary repair stop
markers in each run of the pattern, for any
additional heads that may need to be turned off.

resume sewing on this head in the next
run of the pattern.
