System Information
The serial number of the machine is displayed at the
top of the System Information screen. This number
matches the one found on the label at the back of the
machine under the rear handlebar.
Information contained in the white boxes below the
serial number identifies the electronics board revision
numbers as well as the firmware revision numbers of
the HQ Avanté and its handlebars. The Lifetime and
Trip (or project) stitch counters count the number
of stitches the machine is performed. The Lifetime
count is the total number of stitches made since the
machine was built. The Trip Counter can be reset to
keep track of the number of stitches made during a
given project. To reset this counter, press the blue
“Reset” button just to the left of the “Trip” box. The
Lifetime counter cannot be reset and should be used
as an indicator to determine when general machine
maintenance should be performed by an authorized
Handi Quilter Representative. (Figure 44)
