5.4.5 Frame offset setting
The function is to decide the starting position of the embroidery design, the offset position, and the stop position
after work completion to ensure more convenient embroidery work.
<Fig.5.4.5-1> appears when selecting “Frame Offset Setting” on the menu.
The sub-menus for frame coordinates are as below:
[Fig. 5.4.5-1]
(Design Start Point) : It decides the frame’s start position for the called design. When the
starting position is pre-determined, regardless of the current frame locations, the frame automatically moves to
the start position when the embroidery work begins.
(Offset Middle Point) : It decides the middle position between the design starting position and
the stop position when the design is completed to prevent the needle bar from contacting the embroidery
materials. If the function is unnecessary, the same value can be entered for the design starting position and the
stop position after design is completed. It does not adversely affect the machine operation.
(Design Offset Point) : It decides the frame position where design is completed or the offset
frame position. This function is useful for applique work and the replacement of hoop.
[ Caution ]
1. If the frame coordinates setting (offset) is not set as “Yes” in the basic setting, the setting of the frame
coordinates is not applied during embroidery.
2. If the frame origin is incorrect, it is difficult to find the frame coordinates.
