5.6 Programming of Seams (TEACH IN)
 A maximum of 99 patterns with a total of 99 seams can be programmed, i. e. 1 pattern with 99 seams each or 99
patterns with 1 seam each. In between, all combinations are possible.
 Programming is possible with or without code number.
 The functions “start backtack”, “end backtack”, “stitch counting”, “light barrier”, “thread trimmer”, “sewing foot lift”
and “needle positions” can be assigned individually to each seam.
 The functions of signals A1 and A2 can also be assigned to each seam, on condition that slide-in strip 6, 8, 9, 10 has
been inserted into the V820 control panel and activated by means of the respective parameter 292.
 The stitches for start and end backtack and stitch counting as well as the compensating stitches for the light barrier
function can be programmed individually for each seam section.
 Several counted seam sections can be linked (key 9).
Attention! The “TEACH IN“ function has been changed as compared to the 62 and 82 type series!
Seams and/or patterns can be added by pressing the INSERT F1 key or erased by pressing the DELETE F2 key. Before
programming new patterns and/or seams it is advisable to delete previously saved patterns and/or seams by pressing the
DELETE F2 key according to chapter “Deleting a Seam or Pattern“. If patterns or seams are to be inserted between
existing ones, press the INSERT F1 key according to chapter “Inserting a Seam or Pattern“.
Example: 3 patterns are in the memory. Delete the 2nd pattern by pressing the DELETE F2 key. The 3rd pattern takes the
place of the 2nd pattern. A new 2nd pattern can be installed by pressing the INSERT F1 key. The pattern in 2nd place will
go back to being pattern no. 3.
For adding patterns and/or seams proceed as described in the following chapters.
The figure below shows all the functions assigned to programming of seams TEACH IN.
