To add new bobbin configuration and record bobbin capacity
1. When you are ready to define a new bobbin capacity for a particular type of thread, completely fill a
bobbin with that thread and insert it into the machine.
2. Touch the icon to add a new bobbin. Use the pop-up
keyboard to enter a descriptive name so you will know which
type of thread this configuration applies to. Close the pop-up
keyboard by touching arrow in the lower-left corner of
the screen.
3. Touch the Record button. The bobbin capacity value will
reset to zero. Quilt until the bobbin runs out.
NOTE
: The Reset Bobbin button on the Main Screen
shows the bobbin capacity as you quilt. When you touch
the Reset Bobbin button, it shows the estimated capacity
of the full bobbin. As you quilt, this number counts
down. While you are recording the bobbin capacity of a
bobbin, the number increases as you quilt until it runs
out of thread.
4. Return to the low-bobbin alarm screen and press the Record
button again to stop recording. The number that appears in
the Bobbin Capacity box is an estimate how much thread is
on the bobbin.
5. Estimate how much bobbin thread you think you’ll use for
tieoffs and decrease the bobbin capacity by that much. Press
the minus (–) button to decrease the capacity. Or, touch the
Bobbin Capacity box to pop up an onscreen number pad and
enter the number directly.
6. When you are ready to use a full bobbin with that type of
thread, insert the full bobbin and press the Reset Bobbin
button on the Main screen
7. Make sure the alarm icon is enabled (green), or on. If not,
touch the alarm icon to toggle it on. When the bobbin level
reaches zero, the low-bobbin alarm will sound if it is
turned on.
