The EMB mode menu allows you to set a speed in which to “float” through your design in order to fast
forward or rewind through your design without stitching. When you get a thread break, you should
rewind your design a few stitches back to make sure you didn’t skip any stitches.
HOW TO FAST FORWARD AND REWIND YOUR DESIGNS
You can rewind through your stitches using the stop button on your panel and in between the machine’s
heads. Refer to the section on how to rewind your design.
However, in order to fast-forward through your stitches, you will need to open up the EMB
mode menu, select a speed in which to float through, and then press start.
Your EMB mode key will display the status of the embroidery. While your machine is
embroidering (in working status), you will see the key with the needle and the zig zag line.
See Figure 89.
When your machine is forwarding or rewinding through your design in a low speed, the key
will display one triangle. See Figure 90.
When your machine is forwarding or rewinding through your design in a high speed, the
key will display two triangles. See Figure 91.
To switch between low and high speed floating, simply click on the corresponding key to
go into low-speed or high-speed floating. Then, press stop for rewinding. And press start
for fast-forwarding.
After forwarding or rewinding your design, make sure to tap on the working status icon to return the
machine to embroidery mode.
In this menu, you can also forward or rewind through color stops or
through a specific stitch count.
To forward or rewind through color stops, click on the forward color
and backward color key until you’ve reached the area where you wish to
begin stitching again.
To rewind or forward through a specific amount of stitches, input the value you wish to forward or
rewind, using the arrow keys. Then, click on forward stitches to forward and backward stitches to
rewind. See Figure 92.
