Normally, the machine automatically assigns
thread colors to the needle bars; however, a
specific thread color can be manually assigned to
a certain needle bar. If a needle bar is specified,
that needle bar is removed from the machine’s
automatic assignments and the specified color
remains assigned to it.
By specifically assigning often used thread colors
to certain needle bars, the trouble of changing the
thread spools can be reduced.
Also, the maximum sewing speed can be specified
to the assigned needle bar. It is useful when you
specially set a weak thread such as a metallic
thread to the assigned needle bar.
Once a manual needle bar setting is specified, it
remains applied until the setting is cancelled.
The manual needle bar settings can be specified in
page 3 of the settings screen.

Note
• This feature is not accessible through the
embroidering screen.
• You can assign thread colors up to 5 needle
bars in normal mode. When you set
“Manual Color Sequence” to “ON” in
settings screen, it is available to assign up
to 6 needle bars. If you assign all the 6
needle bars in the “Manual Color
Sequence” mode, and then you set the
machine to the normal mode, the setting of
needle bar 6 is canceled automatically.
