Embroidery Frame Position and Movement
The following provides information concerning the embroidery frame when operating the embroidery
machine.
■Embroidery frames that cannot be used for
embroidering
As explained on page47, the embroidery frame
indicators at the top of the screen show the
embroidery frames that can be used to sew the
currently selected pattern.
Embroidery frames with an embroidering area
smaller than the pattern cannot be used. In
addition, the embroidery frame cannot be used
if the embroidery is smaller than the
embroidering area but is positioned so that it
extends out of the embroidering area of t he
frame.

area of the frame
In either of these cases, a message appears on
the embroidery machine, warning that the
embroidery frame must be changed.
A message indicating that the embroidery frame
be replaced may appear even if no embroidery
frame is installed.
The embroidery machine detects which
embroidery frame is installed according to the
position of the left arm of the embroidery frame
holder. Therefore, the embroidery frame size is
determined by the position of the left arm, even
if the embroidery frame is not actually installed.
In addition, if the embroidery frame holder is not
installed, the embroidery machine determines
that the cap frame (optional) is installed.
