This section provides a comprehensive description of how to use the extended option output by providing a range of
examples so that many users will be able to use it easily.
The examples show programs that can be tried and tested only with an air-type sewing machine.
Necessary items
Air work clamp type sewing machine (an electromagnetic type is not applicable).
The
programmer
CF card
Programming instruction manual (See the instruction manual when a reference page is provided.)
Sewing machine adjustment manual (See the section on switching the memory switch.).
Simplified examples of the extended option output
Programming No. 1 to No. 20 is possible as option outputs; No. 15 is for the air valve output of the left work clamp and
No. 16 is for the air valve output of the right work clamp. If outputs No. 15 and 16 are programmed as option output,
the work clamp will not function as originally programmed, but will function as programmed as option output. The
examples show how to program option outputs No. 15 and 16 to confirm their operation (acceptable if the left and right
work clamps function as programmed).
Caution
One example shows how to sew with the work clamp raised. Please be careful when attempting it.
Be sure to remove the needle before confirming its operation.
