4. The Customizing Menus
Although you may not use these menus every time you embroider, they may be valuable in specific
situations.
Frame Menu
Framing is when the machine moves through a design stitch-by-stitch without embroidering. It is
useful for correcting small embroidery errors.
As the machine moves through the design, it tracks the location and thread color. If a color change
is necessary, the Advantage 18 will do it when [START] is pressed, and before it starts embroidering.
NOTE:
If you are going to embroider with a new color or make a lengthy move, perform a Trim
Immediate before you start framing. This eliminates a tail of thread across the
embroidery field. The Trim Immediate option is in the Trim menu.
Framing can be performed anytime a design is loaded and the machine is stopped. To Frame, press
and hold the [STOP] key until the beam moves. You may frame either forward or backward. Set the
forward and backward direction in the Frame menu as described in these steps:
1. Scroll through the top level menus to reach the Frame Menu.
2. Press [MENU] until the LCD displays: FRAME MENU.
3. Press [ENTER] and the LCD displays: FRAME BACK.
4. Press [
⇒
]. The LCD now displays: FRAME FORWARD.
5. After selecting the direction, press [ENTER].
6a. Press [STOP] until the beam moves forward or backward one stitch then release [STOP].
OR
6b. Press and hold [STOP] until the beam moves several stitches and release [STOP].
OR
6c. Press and hold [STOP] for about five seconds, then release it. The beam will continue moving
until you press [STOP] a second time.
Framing occurs in the set direction as long as you are embroidering that design. Every time a new
design is loaded, the Frame Menu defaults to frame back.
