BSR
BSR (BERNINA Stitch Regulator) Function
The BSR presser foot reacts to the movement of the fabric under the foot and controls the
speed of the sewing computer up to the maximum speed possible. The following applies:
the faster the fabric is moved the higher the speed of the sewing computer.
If the fabric is moved too fast an acoustic signal (beep) is heard. The beeper can be
turned on or off in the Setup Program or directly on the «BSR» screen.
BSR Description
With Straight Stitch no. 1
This function using a special presser foot allows for
free-motion quilting (sewing) using the straight stitch and a
pre-selected stitch length (up to 4mm).
A regulated set stitch length is maintained within a certain
speed, independent of the movement of the fabric.
With Zig-zag Stitch no. 2
The zig-zag stitch can be used for thread painting or fabric
embellishment.
The set stitch length will
not be maintained when sewing
with the zigzag stitch, but the BSR function simplifies
the application.

By activating the BSR function the sewing
computer sews either continuously at a
reduced motor speed (mode 1, standard),
or as soon as the fabric is moved (mode 2).
As long as the BSR presser foot is illumi-
nated red, adjustments like threading and
changing the needle, for example must not
be carried out, as the needle will engage
while fabric is moved unintentionally!
Without fabric feed the BSR mode is
turned off after approx. 7 seconds and the
red light goes off.
Please refer to the Safety Instructions! By

When exceeding a certain speed, adhering to

For an even sewing start (one single stitch)
the foot control must be pressed and the fabric
moved simultaneously.
This also applies for sewing points and
straight stitching within a round form.
If the BSR function is deactivated and later
re-activated without the sewing computer
being switched off in between, the last
selected BSR mode is active.
