software would only allow five needles to be anchored. Latest versions allow all six to be
anchored.
Press the OK key.
Once this has been completed, you will be able to program designs with the six colors that
you have set on your custom thread table. Since there are only six colors on this table, and
that they are anchored, they can represent the six needle bars of the machine.
To program a design by needle bar sequence, start from the main menu. For our example,
select the pre-programmed designs by pressing the
“Design” key from the main menu.
The screen should appear as such:

Select the Color Programming key. The screen should appear as such:
The Custom Thread Palette that you created should be the available palette. The names of
the colors shown are the default colors of the Madeira color palette. The colors of the
palette are to be considered the needle bars from left to right, with the left most color being
needle bar one and the last color, the rightmost, being needle bar six.
This allows the operator to place the spools of thread on the machine wherever desired,
and then have the ability to choose the needle bar sewing order, instead of informing the
8
software where certain colors of spools are placed. If the design were to be programmed
with the order of the needle bars 4-1-6-2-5-3, select the fourth color from the left, #1944,
use the arrow keys, then press the "set key" . Use the
keys, to select the next color to program. Program the colors, following the 4-1-6-2-5-3
order desired. You will notice that the first color is “1811”, the second is “1622”, and as
follows, “1833”, “1944”, “1955”, & “1866”. These numbers will appear in the box showing
the color that you selected. The last two digits of each number will help remind you of the
needle bar that you desire, with “11” representing needle bar “1”, “22” representing needle
bar “2” and “so on”.
Return to the first color programmed using the spool keys. The column
should appear as such:
Since the last digits shown are “44, 11, 66, 22, 55, 33”, the needle bar order will be “4-1-6-
2-5-3”. The screen should appear as such:

change threads. The change thread screen should appear as such:
Click on the “Close” key .
You are now ready to begin sewing.
