The second feature of the Limit box are three buttons
called Presets that can be customized to your favorite
speed settings (Figure 21). Pressing a Preset button
will change the “My Speed” setting to the speed shown
on that button. This feature makes it quick and easy to
switch between different speeds preferred for different
types of quilting. For example you may wish to use
a slower speed for detail work and a faster speed for
stippling. Changing these Preset values is discussed in
the “Presets Screen” section.

Pressing the “More” button (Figure 22) will change
to the “More” menu screen, which allows access to
lighting options, sound options, diagnostics menus,
system informa tion, Preset button customization and a
calculator.
Up/Down/Tie-Off
The button with the needle image in the center of the
screen can assist you in creating tie-off stitches, basting
or needle-positioning functions without the use of the
foot pedal (Figure 23). Pressing and releasing the
button quickly will send the needle to the next needle
stop position. If the needle is up, pressing the button
will cause the needle to move to the down position. If
the needle is down, it will return to the up position.
Pressing and holding the button for a longer time
allows you to do a full stitch. As long as you continue
to hold the button down the machine will continue to
stitch at a slow rate, and when the button is released
the needle will stop in the closest stop position (up or
down) available. This action is useful for tieing off
beginning and ending stitches.
Needle Stop
When in “Needle Up” mode, the needle ends in the
“Up” position upon release of the foot pedal. This
button does not move the needle, but simply determines
the final needle position after the machine has been
stopped. (Figure 24)
When in “Needle Down” mode, the needle ends in
the “Down” position upon release of the foot pedal.
Again, this button does not move the needle, but sets
the final resting position of the needle after the foot
pedal is released.
