2
If “ON” is selected, touch and to
select the number of feed codes.
The desired setting is displayed.
• A value between 1 and 8 can be specified.
For example, if 3 is specified, sequential 3
jump codes will be converted to the trim
code. But sequential 2 jump code will not be
converted to the trim code, it will be sewed
as the feed (jump) stitch.
Note
● You need to set the jump number same as
the number that was used when the
particular Tajima data was created.
If the jump number is not matched, either
unexpected trim or no trimming at trim
expected point will happen.
Deleting short stitches
If embroidery data other than our original patterns is
used, the pitch may be too small, which may result
in the thread or the needle breaking. In order to
prevent this, the machine can be set to delete stitches
with a fine pitch. Stitches with a pitch less than that
specified here can be deleted.
When the embroidery machine is purchased, “0”
was selected (delete stitches with a pitch of 0).
The setting to delete short stitches can be specified
from the second page of the settings screen.
1
Touch and to select the pitch size.
The desired size is displayed.
• A value between 0 and 1 millimeters if the
units of measurements is set to “mm” (or a
value between 0 and 0.04 inch if the units of
measurements is set to “inch”) can be
specified.
Specifying the remaining
length of thread
This setting specifies whether the length of upper
thread that remains threaded through the needle after
the thread is trimmed (length of thread passed
through the eye of the needle) has a standard tail or
long tail.
When the embroidery machine is purchased,
“standard tail” is selected.
The setting for the remaining length of thread can be
specified from the second page of the settings screen.
1
Touch and to select the setting.
The desired length is displayed.
• If the machine misses stitches with a
standard length of thread after it is trimmed,
select “Long tail”.
• When using metallic thread, select “Long
tail”.
