Quilting the Quilt - Which CS Feature To use<br />
Phase 1 - Basting<br />
Securing the Quilt using Baste<br />
that control the sewing head which allows the sewing head to move freely in all<br />
directions.<br />
Steps to follow:<br />
1. Click on the Baste Sewing icon.<br />
A Dialog box shows settings and buttons.<br />
Settings:<br />
Angle:This is the current angle that will be used when Channel Lock is turned on.<br />
Stitches Per Inch - Are really "Inches Per Stitch" in Baste Mode. Basting stitch size<br />
ranges from 1/2" long (B.5) to 4 inches long (B4). Change with up/down arrows or<br />
use mouse & keyboard.<br />
Flip Angle: If Radiating Lines is not checked, this angle will replace the current angle.<br />
This is intended to be used with the channel lock feature. To flip the angle, press<br />
and hold the shift button on the keypad, and press the Chan Lock button. To flip<br />
it back again, repeat the 2-button sequence.<br />
Radiating Lines - When checked, CS uses a 2-button sequence to increase the<br />
current angle by the number of degrees shown in Flip Angle. To increase the<br />
current angle, press and hold the Shift Button on the keypad, and press the Chan<br />
Lock Button. Repeat this to increase it again.<br />
Needle Position - If checked, the sewing head works like the '<strong>Gammill</strong> Plus'<br />
machines, allowing a half stitch to be taken instead of a full single stitch. Press<br />
the button once and the needle goes down & stays there. Press it again to bring<br />
the needle back up. If it is down when stitching starts, it will go back down when it<br />
stops.<br />
Buttons:<br />
Record Off means the motions are not being recorded, The Record function 151<br />
is<br />
explained in depth, in a later section.<br />
Chan Lock (on/ off) locks the sewing head so it stitches a straight line at one angle.<br />
This requires that the belts be engaged.<br />
Shift - Press this once and additional keypad functions appear & stay for a couple<br />
seconds. This is for reference only - each blue button requires a 2-button<br />
sequence.<br />
Single Stitch - press this to take a full single stitch. If the Needle Position box is<br />
checked, this button is labeled 'Needle Position', and pressing it takes a half<br />
stitch.<br />
Start - starts the stitching process, and STOP ends it.<br />
