QUILT MAKER PRO 20
Configurable Handlebar Buttons
The Janome QMP 20 handlebars are configurable; you can decide which functions you want select buttons
to operate. Once configured, the front and back handlebars work the same.
The machine comes from Janome configured to have the right handlebar control starting and stopping
quilting, and increasing stitching speed in Manual mode or stitches per inch in Regulated mode. The left
handlebar controls cycling the needle up and down, and slowing the stitching speed or decreasing stitches
per inch. However, you can switch the functions from one side to the other when you set up your machine.
You can also select from several functions and assign one to the star button and another to the diamond
button. For example, choose to have the diamond button perform a tie-off and the star button perform
another desired function.
For more information about configuring the handlebars and buttons, see To customize the handlebar
buttons in the Toolbar Options section of this manual.
Install the handlebar labels according to what you want each handlebar to do. For example, if you are
left-handed, you may want the left handlebar to control starting and stopping the stitching.
NOTE: The traditional handlebar configuration has the Start and Stop buttons on the right
handlebar and the Needle Up and Down buttons on the left handlebar.
To attach labels to the handlebars
U
CAUTION: Be absolutely certain of your handlebar label choice before installing the labels.
Once they are stuck down they cannot be removed without damaging the switch.
1. Peel off the paper backing off the labels and place them on the front handlebars according
to how you plan to configure the functions.
2. Repeat for the optional rear handlebars, making sure that you match the placement from the
front handlebars.
