8-7. Active-presser multi-layered section detection function
8-7-1. Multi-layered section detection function
When this function is used, the sewing machine detects a multi-layered section of the material, automati-
cally changes over the sewing parameter to one-touch changeover 4 parameter (
) and carries out sewing. The multi-layered section detection setting can be
stored in memory on a pattern-by-pattern basis.
Detectable material thickness : Max. 10 mm
Detection resolution
: 0.1 mm
* Multi-layered section of material that is less than 2 mm in thickness is likely to be affected by the feed dog
height. Stable detection, therefore, cannot be carried out. It is not possible to detect two or more multi-lay-
ered sections thickness of which are different. In such cases, one-touch changeover function or the polyg-
onal-shape stitching function by means of the hand switch should be used.
[In order to detect a multi-layered section]
1. Select enable/disable of the multi-layered
section detection function.
1) Press
❶
.
The "sewing data edit screen" is displayed.
<Sewing data edit screen>
<
Multi-layered section detection sensor value screen>
2) Press
❷
.
"S058 Multi-layered part sensor screen" is dis-
played.
3) Select enable/disable of the multi-layered part
detection by pressing
❸
(OFF) or
❹
(ON).
4) Press
❺
to confirm the setting. Then,
the sewing data edit screen is displayed.
Set the "threshold" for ON/OFF of the multi-lay-
ered section detection.
* For the purpose of the multi-layered section
detection function, the word "threshold" means
the value at which the multi-layered section
sensor reacts.
MAX : 3000
MIN : 1000
<Sewing screen>
If the presser foot rests on a multi-layered part of material when turning the power ON, the multi-lay
-
ered part detection may fail to be turned ON.
