• The above four types of data can all be read, but when writing to disk, all data is automatically converted to 300F,

300E data when writing to 2HD disks and 300A data when writing to 2DD disks.

• When using a 2HD disk, use a disk which has been pre-formatted as a 1.44 MB disk. (The programmer can be used

to format these disks. Refer to the programmer instruction manual for details.)

• TFD embroidery data can be embroidered after it has been converted by the programmer to BAS-300F and BAS-

300E data.

• Restriction on using 2DD floppy disks.

In order to maintain compatibility    with the old 300A series, the following restrictions have been placed on the use of
the new functions which have been added to the E series.
