This section describes how to program shapes which are symmetrical along the Y axis, using an actual program as an
example.
Symmetrical pattern type
Symmetrical to Y-axis
Select "Symmetrical along Y axis".
Symmetrical to X-axis
Select "Symmetrical along X axis".
Center of mask (horizontal)
Select "Center of Mask

1. Carry out steps 1 to 3 in "Programming procedure"
(page 17).
2. Use the functions for creating feed data or curved
lines to create an outline from A to B.
Refer to "Programming for each stitch" (page 51) or
"Pattern with curves" (page 53).
3. Touch .
4. Touch .
5. Touch to select the symmetry mode.
In the example, "Symmetrical along Y axis" is
selected.
6. Use the jog key to select the whole of the outline
which was created in step 2.
* The outline which is selected will be displayed in
red.
7. Press .
The selected outline will be copied symmetrically
