Importing Data From Files
You can import pattern data from a file on the floppy drive, hard disk, or the
network, to any location in the current pattern edit window. The data is inserted
starting at the active cursor position. Importing data results in an increase in the
record length (number of points) of the pattern.
Do the following steps to import pattern data from a file:
1. Move the cursor to the position to which you want to move the data.
2. Push File (bottom)Insert from File... (pop-up) ENTER (front).
3. Select the file from the Select File dialog box.
4. Push the OK side button.

import the pattern from the current edit area between the cursors. For the target
of operation, you can specify the data or markers with Target, which is displayed
in the dialog box independently of the scope.
