Note:
Transferring split embroidery designs
Embroidery patterns for the split patterns 
created on the custom-sized Design Page 
are written to cards split into their separate 
sections.
If the total size of the pattern exceeds the 
capacity of the media or the machine’s 
memory or if the pattern is split into over 80 
sections with a Design Page size of 90 × 90 
cm (35.4” × 35.4”), you will need to split the 
pattern and write the separate sections onto 
several media.
If all pattern sections cannot be saved with a 
single operation, the Select Hoop Sections 
dialog box appears. Select pattern sections 
until the media becomes full.
The card capacity indicator at the top of the 
dialog box shows the amount of space 
available on the card (white) and the amount 
of space used by the pattern sections (blue).
When a pattern section is selected, the total 
amount of space used by the selected 
pattern sections appears in blue. If the 
capacity is exceeded, the entire card 
capacity indicator appears in red. To 
deselect a pattern section, click it again.
Click Write to write the selected pattern 
sections to the media. (The Write button is 
available only when a pattern section is 
selected and there is sufficient space on the 
media for the selected pattern sections.)
