USING THE CAMERA TO CONNECT PATTERNS

Instead of using thread marks, the camera can be used to connect patterns.
An area of 17 cm × 33 cm (6-1/2 inches × 13 inches) can be embroidered when the camera is used to connect 
patterns. Select the appropriate frame depending on the size of the embroidery. We recommend using the large 
embroidery frame (200 mm × 360 mm (7-7/8 inches × 14 inches)) when using the camera to connect patterns.

Examples of Connected Patterns

Two patterns can be connected by selecting the 
reference point and reference edge of each pattern so 
that they can be aligned using the camera. When 
connecting patterns, the reference edge of each pattern 
will be along a single straight line.

(Example)

: Reference edge
: Reference point

In order to understand how to connect patterns, first try 
following the procedure outlined in “Practice 
(Connecting Three Patterns)” on page 13.

Note

• When installing the embroidery frame (small) (40 

mm × 60 mm (1-1/2 inches × 2-3/8 inches), cap 
frames, cylinder frame or the round frames, you can 
not connect patterns using this function.

• Split (Large-size) embroidery patterns cannot be 

used with this function.

• You can not connect patterns using this function 

while the machine is set to the Link mode.
