Bobbin Thread Indicator
If you use the Low-Bobbin Estimator feature, The
Bobbin Thread Indicator box (Figure 25) shows how
much bobbin thread remains on the bobbin. The
value counts down until it gets to zero, at which time
the low-bobbin alarm alerts you that it is time to put
in a new bobbin if the alarm is enabled. While the
machine is recording how much thread is on a bob-
bin, REC appears on the screen to remind you that it
is estimating the bobbin capacity.
Speed
When Manual is selected within the Stitch Mode
the motor speed can be increased or decreased by
pressing the Speed “+” or “-” buttons. To increase
the Manual Mode motor speed press the Speed “+”
button. To decrease speed press the Speed “-” button.
This has the same effect as pressing the “+” or “-”
buttons on the machine’s handles. The speed range
is between 5% and 100%, or between 90 and 2200
stitches per minute (SPM). The percent speed is dis-
played in the white box located at the top right side
of screen. Stitches per minute (SPM) is not displayed
within the machine’s software.

Manual Presets
Save up to three manual-mode preset speeds to
quickly switch between speed preferences. For exam-
ple, you may prefer a slower speed when using rulers
and a faster speed when doing all-over meandering
quilting. Use the “+” and “-“ buttons to adjust the
speed percentage and then press one of the record
buttons next to the preset value to store that speed
as a preset. When you want to use one of the preset
speeds, simply press the speed. (

On/Off Indicator
The box in the center of the top bar turns green
when you press the “Start” button on the handles to
indicate the needle is in motion. When you press
“Stop,” the box will turn red.

ed in the white indicator box at the top right portion

and 22 stitches per inch.
