The Multi-Touch Screen
Embroidery Settings
Here you will find tabs for Sewing Settings, Embroidery
Settings, Machine Settings etc. Just swipe between the
tabs and make settings for your creative icon™ machine.
1. Default Settings in white colored check boxes
2. Temporary Settings in orange colored check boxes
There are two ways to change your settings;
1. Default Settings:
Settings made in Default Settings will be saved, even
when turning your machine off. The default settings
becomes active when you start a new session or
restart your machine.
2. Temporary Settings:
Settings made in Temporary Settings will be reset at
the start of a new project in Help Center or start of a
new sewing session. When turning your machine off,
all changes made in Temporary Settings will be reset
to default.
ActivStitch™ Technology
When the ActivStitch™ technology feature is selected
your machine will automatically choose the best way to
control the upper thread, by thread metering or thread
tension, based on your selected stitch and settings.
Thread metering automatically and continuously
measures the fabric thickness to meter the correct
amount of thread for the selected stitch. When using
thread tension, the tension discs will keep the correct
amount of tension on the upper thread.
For best results we recommend you keep this setting
selected except when using specific accessories or
special techniques that do not support thread metering.
Deselect the ActivStitch™ technology feature in the
Temporary Settings to switch to thread tension. The
control for adjusting thread metering/thread tension,
will change depending on the active stitch and whether
the ActivStitch™ technology feature is selected or not in
Temporary Settings.
Embroidery Foot type
Select desired embroidery foot type, Dynamic Spring
Foot 6D Free-Motion or a Sensormatic Free-Motion Foot
(e.g. 6A).
Twin Needle Options
When a twin needle size is selected the ActivStitch™
technology feature will automatically use thread tension.
When embroidering with a twin needle the Straight
Stitch Needle Plate needs to be removed as it cannot be
used with a twin needle. The twin needle setting will
automatically be set when loading a twin needle
embroidery project from the project menu.
Note: It is very important to activate the twin needle setting
when embroidering with a twin needle to prevent damage to
the machine.
