1. GENERAL
1-1. Features
1) Use of an AC servomotor provides the following mqor advantages:

(1) No noise or vibration while the machine is at rest.
(2) The power consumption is40% to 60% compared with theconventional power consumption.
(3) The motor weight hasbeen almost halved, permitting easier layout change.
(4) The absence of a clutch (no brake incase of Ncompany's motor) makes the unitvirtually maintenance-fiee.
(H company's brake isgood for more than 10years undernormal operation.)
Unlike the DC servomotor, there is no bmsh.
2) Pedal operation features

High-speed'
(1) Youcan set the maximum sewing speed in 400 s.p.m. play stroke
steps with fingertip control according to the type of
operation and your level of proficiency.
(In the conventional unit, the motor pulleyhad to
be changed to alter the maximum sewing speed.)
Further, you can get the same speed at any time.
Pedal depression amount
(2) Theconventional speed limit knob is also provided.

So, by combining the knob with the function
mentioned in (1) above, high-speed play stroke can
be provided. This eliminatesthe need for large (3) 1mm (0.039 'l
pedalingforce to maintain high speed, significantly adjustable by ^
pedal stroke >
reducing operator foot fatigue. /
(3) Thespeed acceleration starting point can be adjusted / (4) 400 spm
about 1 mm (0.039") by pedal stroke to suit with _t 200 spm
each operator.
Pedal depression amount
(4) The minimum speed for depressing the front part of
the pedal can be changed (from 200 s.p.m. to 400
s.p.m.).
3) Reverse feed stitching features

(1) As inthe conventional model, you can select either the mode inwhich priority is given to pedaling for the
starting reverse feed stitching or the mode in which themachine performs nonstop reverse feed stitching at
a preset speed.
(2) The reverse feed stitching speed has been increased from 1,700 s.p.m. to 1,900 s.p.m. (about 12% increase).
Furthermore, the speed can be adjusted from 1,000 s.p.m. to 3,500 s.p.m., using the variable resistor.
(3) The speed control circuitry has been improved to prevent overrun or 1-stitch error when the reverse feed
stitching speed is changed.
4) The soft start speedhas been increased.

The soft start speed for assuring properly interlaced threads of a starting stitch has been increased from 200 s.p.m.
to 800 s.p.m.
The soft start speed is now adjustable within a range of 200 s.p.m. to 2,000 s.p.m., so you do not have to drop
the speed more than necessary.

5) Enhanced series with easy upgrading • ' •^ ^^
The controller comes in the SC-20, SC-120, SC-220, SC-320 andSC-522 series, and you caneasily upgrade them
simply byreplacing their control panels (excluding theSC-522). ? ; > ..
6) A manual count-down capability has been added.

As an additional capability, the manual count-down capability has been added to the one-touch type reverse feed
switch to provide thecontrol based of a preset number of stitches.
Description Applications
When the one-touch type reverse feed switch

Count back is pressed, the preset number of stitches is Sewing pleats

counted down, and threads are trimmed. (This feature is especially useful
in a sewing machine for standing
work because the need for
operating the thread trimmer
switch is eliminated.)
7) Even if a material overlap at sewing start or endisthick, the needle will not be caught in the thick overlap.
(After thread trimming, you can turn the handwheel in the reverse direction to bring the needle barup to its
highest position.)
8) A connectorfor standing work has been provided as a standarditem.
9) A terminal for connection to a sewing control system has been provided.
10) The automatic presser foot lifting capability can beadded simply by adding the AK auto-lifter and a transistor
circuit board.
11) The control panel is very easy to operate and the slant panel surface makes it easier tosee indication on the panel.
12) Toensure easier operation of the control panel, each key has been assigned to only one function.
13) You can set the lifting duration of the Auto-lifter afterthread trimming for60 sec. or ten minutes.
(For a sewing machine for standing work, it is advisable to set the lifting duration for ten minutes.)
14) The output transistor has been designed tobe aunit circuit board to make it acommon part. Ifany trouble
should occur, the minimum function is assured.
(Example : Ifthe thread trimmer transistor fails, the wiper transistor will work topermit thread trimming and
reverse feed stitching.)
15) The trouble checking feature for the output system (output monitor LED) has been added to the conventional
input system. This enables you to quickly and easily identify defective parts.
16) Reliability
The machine uses only the components which have passed our reliability test conducted oneach discrete component.
17) We are planning to provide the following options in the future:

Sewing control counter (of low cost)
18) The machine controller now can be applied tothe control of the ED-1 (cloth edge sensor) (Optional).

2-2. Test Run ^
1) Operation when the power switch is turned ON

When the power switch is turned ON, if the needle isnot in its upperstopposition, the machine rotates until its €?
needle reaches the upper stop position, and then stops with its needle in that position.
If the needle is already in its upper stop position when the power switch is turned ON, the sewingmachine stays
stationary.

The sewing machine runs at low speed when you depress the front part of the pedal.
The sewing speedchanges from low to high when the front part of the pedal is further depressed.
(However, if the automatic reverse feed stitching switch has been set, the machine will not mn at high speed
until it completes reverse feed stitching.) 7^
When the pedal is returned to the neutral position(stop position), the machine will stop with needle down.
When the back part of the pedal is depressed, the thread trimmer is actuated and the needlegoesup and
stops in its upper position.
(When the wiperswitchhas been set to ON, the wiperis actuated.)

o The sewing machine starts at low speed when the front part of the pedalis lightly depressed,
o The sewing speed changes from low to highwhen the front part of the pedal is further depressed.
(However, if the automatic reverse feed stitching switch has been set, the sewing speed will not change to
high until reverse feed stitching is completed.)
o When the pedal is returned to the neutral(stop) position, the machine stops with its needle down,
o When the back part of the pedal is lightly depressed, the presser foot will go up.
o When the back part of the pedal is further depressed, the presser foot comesdown, thread trimmeris
actuated, and the machine stops with its needle up.
(If the wiper switch has been set to ON, the wiper is actuated.)
o Between the low and high sewing speed positions, the machine runs at a speed corresponding to the pedal
depression amount. (The speed is infinitely variable.)
o The proper thread trimming action will not be disturbed even if the pedal is returned to the neutral
position immediatelyafter the machine starts thread trimming.
At this time, the thread trimmerproperly operateseven if the front part of the pedal is depressed, however,
the safetycircuitry is put in operationso that the machine will not mn after thread trimming is completed.
Therefore, the pedal must be returned to the neutral position once.

3-1. Belt Tension
An excessive belt tension may damage the main shaft bushing of the
machine or the motor bearing. On the contrary, an insufficient belt
tension may cause the belt to slip with consequent shortenedlife of
the belt, and also cause-otherfailures such as overrun after thread
trimming and machine stops with uneven needle stop height.
To avoidsuch problems, use a belt of the appropriate length as
specifiedin the instruction book. Adjust the belt tension using
nut O so that the center of the beltslacks about 18 mm(0.709")
when it is pressed with a finger.

2)How toadjust the maximum sewing speed (for the 4,000 s.p.m. type PSC box)
The maximum sewing speedis adjusted in the two different
ways, i.e. by using400 s.p.m.-step speed control knob
( @ in Fig. 3-12) which is designed to change only the
maximum sewing speedwithout changing the relationship
between the rotational speed of the sewing machine and the
w pedal stroke(hereinafter called "start-up") or by using the
max. sewingspeed control knob ( O in Fig. 3-12) which is
designed to change the max. sewing speed by retarding the
start-up.
The former method is equivalent to the conventionalmethod
to adjustthe max. sewing speed by replacing pulleys, and the
latter method is equivalent to the adjustment using the max.
sewing speed control knob.
Fig. 3-12 The actual max. sewing speed will be the lower onespecified
using either O or © .
(1) 400 s.p.m.-step speed control knob

400 s.p.m.-stepspeed control knob can be set to 16
different steps from 1 to 16 in 400 s.pm. steps.
Direction toward The sewingspeed, therefore, can be adjusted to
smaller scale value
400 through 4,000 s.p.m. with ease.
This method of limitting the maximum sewing speed
increases/decreasesonly the maximum sewing speed
without changing the start-up as shown by the
Direction toward
larger scale values arrows in Fig. 3-13. The desired sewing speed can
be easily reached even when the max. sewing speed
is set to low.
i ai^
.2
The relationship between the scaleof the switch and
sI the sewingspeed is as shown in Table 3-2. The max.
Pedal stroke sewingspeed changes after thread trimming or
IT S
re-tuming ON the power to the machine. Conse
quently, the changingof the switch during sewing
Fig. 3-13 will not be effective until the machine performs
a thread trimming.

The function of this dial knob is as same as that of
7
^ ^Counterclockwise the conventional max. speed control knob. Turn
O ^ \ / the dial knob clockwise to increase the rotational
speed of the sewing machine, or counterclockwise
to decrease it. The range of adjustable speed is
S a> Clockwise
from 200 to 4,000 s.p.m. In this method, the
max. sewing speed is changed with the start-up
retarded, which makes this method different from
the one described in (1).
Ol u> The max. sewing is decreased in the order as O to
0 to © by turning the dial knob counterclock
wise.
Pedal stroke
This dial knob is designed to use the pedal stroke
to the full until the specified max. sewing speed is
reached. On the contrary, speed acceleration on
Fig. 3-14
the way is sluggish.
It is advisable to adjust the start-up by appropriatelycombining methods(1) and (2) by meansof knobs O and ©
accordingto the sewingprocessor to the operator's convenience.

3-6. Auto-lifter
The Auto-lifter is available as an option.

It isdesigned to automatically raise and hold the presser foot for60 seconds or for10minutes after completion
of thread trimming.
To operate the Auto-lifter, the function selector switch on the main circuit board should be set to ON.

3-7. How to reduce the hand light from flickering (for single phase only)
When you rapidly accelerate the sewing machine, the

hand light or the room lighting may flicker. This is
caused by a line voltage drop due to the abrupt start
and acceleration of the motor. Such flickering will do
no harm to the performanceof the sewing machine.
To reduce the light flick, turn screw O on the back
of the PSC box in the direction of the anow, using a
screwdriver.
(If you do this, the risingspeed of the sewing machine
will decrease.)

4. FUNCTIONS
4-1. Power supply voltage
There are two types of PSC box, one for use with
a power supply voltage of about 1OOV and one for
about 200V.
They can be told apart as shown in Fig. 4—1,
from the numbers following "Volts O " on the
name plate O on the side of the PSC box.
For the 200V-band box the numbers are
200 220 240.
For the lOOV-band box the numbers are
100 no 120.
For each box any of 3 actual power supply
200V-band (for H company's motor) voltages can be selected. In the 200V-band 200V,
^Black 220V or 240V can be selected. In the lOOV-band
Volts 200 220 240 lOOV, 1 lOV or 120V can be selected.

Notes) o If any dip switches other than those in the tables (SW2-1,2,3, SW34, 5,8, SW4-3, SW5-3)
are turned ON, there is a danger that the sewingmachine head will be damaged. Absolutely do not
touch them.
o Select functions with the power OFF. (While the power is ON the function selectionswill not change.)
3) Detailed explanations of functions

(1) Starting automatic reverse stitching speed selection
Select whether the starting reverse stitching speed is to vary with the amount the pedal is depressed or to
depend solelyon the speed setting. Thisselection is made with SW4-1 (SBTM/A).
ON: The set number of stitches are all sewnat the speedset by BT VR and LSLVR regardless of how
far the pedal is depressed (consequently, sewing cannot be stopped in the middle even when the
pedal is in neutral).
OFF: The speed depends on how far the pedal is depressed (except that the speed cannot exceed the
upper limit set by BT VR). In pedal priority operation, sewingcan be stopped in the middle by
putting the pedal in neutral (during reverse stitching step, turn the solenoid OFF while sewing
is stopped).
(2) Wiper control selection
Select whether or not wiper control is to be applied (when wiper control is to be not applied temporarily,
this can be accomplished with the switch on the head).
Make this selection with SW4-2 (WIP ON).
ON: After thread trimming the wiper solenoid comes ON for about 45ms and the wiper operates.
Also, when the Auto-lifter has been selected, there is a delay of about 30ms before the shift to
presser foot lifter control (to allow time for the wiper to return).
OFF: Wiper is not actuated (For this reason,when there is an Auto-lifter it takes 45 ms for suction and
30 ms for return for a fast total time of 75 ms, then the presser foot risesautomatically.
(Caution) if SW3-2 (FLUD) is simuhaneousiy set to its ON position, the time required to start controlling
the presser lifter is changed to approximately 60 ms. (This function is useful in the case where the
the presser foot comes in contact with the wiper.)
(3) Selection of back-up needle raising after thread trimming

When the presser foot is raised after thread trimming, when the needle tip gets in the way below the
presser foot the sewing machine can be backed up to the vicinity of the needle upper dead point. Make
this selection with SW3-3. (REV ON)
ON: Needle can be raised by backing sewing machine up (but in this position the balance is lowered
quite far, so the needle thread should be drawn out farther than normal from the needle tip).
OFF: Back-up control is not applied after thread trimming.
(4) Selection of routine needle-up stop function
When this function is selected, whenever the needle is stopped by putting the pedal in neutral it stops in
the upper position. Make this selection with SW5-4 (UP TRM).
ON: Needle routinely stops in upper position (in this case, run the sewing machine one cycle by pedal
return, trim the thread and then stop it again in the upper position).
OFF: Needle stops in lower position.
(5) Selection of soft start function
When the sewing pitch isfine or the needle is thick,when the needle thread and bobbin thread fail to
interlace at the start of sewing the sewing stability can be improved by limiting the sewing machinespeed
during the first or second stitch at the start of sewing.
Make this selection with combination of SW5-7 (SOFT ON) and SW5-8 (SOFT 1/2).
(refer to Table 4-3).

(6) Selection of manual countback control function
Number of stitches limitation and thread trimming command functions can be added to the touchback
switch on the head.
The number of stitches is set by the rotary switches (SWl SNUM A to D) on the main circuit board.
This selection is made using SW5-5 (SCMBT), SW6-3 (SCMATR) andSW6-4 (SCMESP) (referto Table 4-5).

is some input from the switches including the FL SWor L SW.)
In addition, the aforementioned combinations of the switches can also control the valves by
setting SW2-4(PNEUF) to its ON position.
ON : Valvesare controlled pneumatically or hydraulically. (The signalretaining the
presser foot is set to non-switching output state.) DC34V
OFF : Valvesare controlled by solenoid. (The signal retaining the presser foot is set to
ON/OFF switchingoutput state in 2.5 ms intervals.)
(Caution) When the solenoid controls the valves, be sure to set the PNEUF to its OFF
position. If it is set to its ON position, the solenoid will be burnt out.
In addition, when pneumatic or hydraulic valvecontrol is made, be sure to follow one of the
procedures mentioned below. And be sure to add a diode on the outside of the circuit board
or add a jumper wire on the circuit board. If you do not add one of these, the transistor

Synchro test program (using SC-320 panel)
When this function is used, the control box indicator section is used and indications are output from the
synchronizer. This test checks whether the upper/lower position detection signal and rotation detection
tachometer signal are beinginput correctly (during testing the sewing machine will not run; this is not a
malfunction).
n n 771 In
u u u u u
Upper detection Lower detection Tacho generator Test program indication
1 : detected 1 0
0 : not detected
Fig. 4-10
When the upper position is detected by turning the pulley by hand, the step A indicator switches from 0 to 1.
While detection continues it keeps indicating 1. If the pulley is turned farther by hand and the position is no
longer detected, the indicator switches back from 1 to 0. The lower position detection can be checked in a
similar manner by using the step B indicator section.
If the pulleyturning is speeded up slightly and continued, the step D indicator change from 0 to 1 and 1 to 0
in succession. This is because pulses are generated by the generator incorporated into the pulley. This
repeated changing of the indication confirms that the rotation detection signal is being output normally.
(9) Reverse stitching solenoid timing correction

In automatic reverse stitching, if the fon\'ard and reversestitches are not properly aligned this function will
correct for this by changing the reverse feed solenoid ON/OFF timing(this is only effectivewhen there are
at least 3 stitches in each step).
When the stitches are off due to such causes as change of automatic reverse stitching speed or change of head,
use this function to make the necessary adjustment.
* Automatic start reverse stitching solenoid ON timing correction

Make the correction as in Table 4-11 using a combination of SW6-5 (ACTA), SW4-5 (HOSA 0) and SW4-6
(HOSA 1).

4-4. Safety circuit
The SC-20, SC-120, SC-220 and SC-320 all have safety circuits such as the following. Here we explain their functions,
circuit operation and resetting.
1) Sewingmachine lock safety circuit
< Purpose >

If the sewing machine should lock in place due to some mechanical or electrical malfunction
or if it idles due to the V-belt coming loose, after 2 seconds (0.1 second in case of a sudden
sewingmachine lock) power to the motor and pedal input are shut off to protect the motor
from burn out and reduce damage to the sewing machine to a minimum.
< Circuit operation >

All input and output is prohibited. Even if the pedal is depressed the sewing machine will not
run. Manual reverse stitching also becomes inoperative as does the reverse feed solenoid.
< Resetting >

Turn the power switch OFF, remove the cause of the sewing machine stopping and tum the
power back ON.
- 46 -
2) Synchronizer malfunction safety circuit
< Purpose >

When the synchronizer that detects the needle position (up or down)malfunctions, or if the
needle stopping position becomes indeterminate (it stops anywhere) or it fails to stop and
keeps running, the thread trimming mechanism could be damaged, which would make the
sewing machine unusable.
To prevent this, the microprocessor constantly checks the synchronizer up and down signals.
If an abnormality occurs in the signals the sewing machine continues to work its motor
functioning as a clutch motor without thread trimming.
< Circuit operation >

If an abnormality is detected during sewing machine operation, even if the pedal is depressed
the sewing machine stops. After that, when the pedal is returned to neutral and depressed
again the unit works as a clutch motor, so sewing can be done with it operating as a clutch
motor without thread trimming or automatic reversestitching (reverse stitching by the manual
switch and presser foot lifting by the knee switch can be done).
< Resetting >

Turn the power switch OFF, replace or repair the synchronizer and turn the power switch
back ON.
< Error indication >

In the case of the SC-320, when the sewing machine locks or the synchronizer malfunctions
an indication appears on the control box as shown in Fig. 4-25.
(1) When the sewingmachine locks or the detector malfunctions the nature of the trouble can be determined
from the control panel indicators.

c n

(2) A panel error can be identified from the control panel indicators (when a panel error is indicated, turn the
power switch OFF and back ON).
Panel error n
E u
n
Fig. 4-25
(3) Every time a control panel switch is turned ON a beep sound is produced for confirmation (if an inoperative
switch is pressed no sound is produced).
(4) If the pedal is depressed and the sewing machine fails to operate, a beep sound is produced. Example : if all
steps have not been set in a programmed sewing pattern.
3) Thread trimming in progress/completed safety circuit

If the pedal is depressed while terminal reverse stitching or thread trimming is in progress, after the sewing
machine has completed thread trimming it remains stopped to prevent needle breakage or blade damage.
< Resetting> Return the pedal to neutral, then depress it again and the sewing machine will return to
normal operation.

47 -
4) If power is turned ON while pedal is depressed
If the power switch is turned ON while the pedal is depressed, if the needle is down it goes to the up position,
if up it just stays there. Operation is the same as when the pedal is in neutral.
< Resetting > Return the pedal to neutral, then depress it again and the sewing machine will return to
normal operation
5) Reverse feed solenoid safety circuit

If the manual reverse stitching switch is held ON continuously for 12 seconds or more, power to the reverse
feed solenoid is shut off, except that automatic start and finish reverse stitching proceed normally even while
this safety circuit is operating. If thread trimming takes place while this switch is held ON continuously, power
to the reverse feed solenoid is shut off.
<Resetting > Turning the manual reverse stitching switch OFF releases the safety circuit.
6) Auto-lifter safety circuit

After the thread is trimmed, the presser foot is raised by the automatic lifting function, but if it stays up for
1 minute, the power to the presser foot lifting solenoid isautomatically shut off and the presser foot is lowered.
However, as discussed in the explanation of dip switches FLON and FLPW on Item 4-2-3)-(7), when both FLON
and FLPW are ON it stays up.
< Resetting > After the presser foot is lowered the system returns to the initial condition, and the presser
foot can be raised at any time by thread trimming or the knee switch.
7) Needle position detector loose connector safety circuit

If this needle position detector connector becomes disconnected
and then the power is turned ON, the motor will not operate.
< Resetting > Turn the power OFF, plug the connector in
correctly as shown in Fig. 4-26 and turn the
power back ON. Needle position detector connector

4-5. Connectors for standing work
On the SC20, SC-120, SC-220 and SC-320,4 connectors for use

in standing work are on the front after PSC box as standard
equipment. When the pedal switch is connected to the pins
of these connectors and turned ON, the following operations • ED
are carried out.

1) Connector O Auto-lifter (operative only for a

machine with an automatic presser foot lifting function)
2) Connector Q for actuating the thread trimmer

(valid after low-speed or high-speed sewing operation)
3) Connector @ for high-speed sewing operation

(the sewing speed in this case is determined by the 40U
spm step speed control dial 0 , it cannot be changed
by the conventional maximum speed adjustment dial
0 ).
4) Connector O for low-speed sewing
Note) Automatic presser fool lifting operation (when

connector O switchis turned ON) is as .le<ic!ibed
in 4-2-3)-(7) Lxplanation of dip switch FLON
(SW5-1) and FLPW (SW5-2). This operation is
summarized in Table 4-15 below.
Fig. 4-27

FLON FLPW Control

(SWS-l) (SW5-2)
When connector O switch is turned ON the

ON OFF presser foot is automatically raised; if there is
no input for 60 seconds after that it is
automatically lowered.
After the presser foot is automatically raised,
ON ON
it will be kept raised for 10 minutes as long as
there is no input.
Note) In standing sewing machine operation, if connector O is used set
FLON (SW-5) to ON.
< Standing work cable > (S134) MAS134000AO

The standing work cable can be connected to the various switches of the different section using the adapters
in Table 4-16, which can be ordered. (Since one cable is needed for each connector, four cables are needed to
connect to four connectors.)

5-6. Troubleshooting
1) Whenever trouble occurs, do the following first.
(1) Pull the plugout of the control unit connector,then plugit lock in securely.
(2) Check the line voltage. Confirm that it matches the valueon the name plate.
(3) Check the control unit fuse. If it is necessary to replace Ae fuse, replaceit with the new fuse provided
for this unit, after you have confirmed the capacity of the fuse.
200 ~ 240V specification :3A,(8A)~1 , -.io
100~I20Vspecif.catio„ :4A.(8A)-r tube fuse 0635x31.8
(4) A sewing machine with automatic thread trimmershouldoperate as follows.
When trouble occurs, check the stageto which operation wasnormal; if it is known at what stagethe
trouble occured,the possible trouble spots are narrowed down,making troubleshooting easier.
0 Power switch ON 1-1) Power lamp lights up
1-2) The needle bar stops in its highest position.
0 Pedal depression 2-1) Sewing machine operates (low speed -»• high speed)
@ Pedal neutral 3-1) The needle bar stopsin its lowest position.
0 Pedal return 4—1) Thread is trimmed.
4-2) The needle bar stops in its highest position.
4-3) Wiperoperates.
4—4) Presser foot is lifted.
0 Steps related to reverse feed stitching
5—1) Automatic reverse feed stitching.
5—2) One-touch type reverse feed stitching.
(5) If trouble occurs, firSt fmd out whether the trouble ison the PSC box side or on the control boxside.
If the trouble is on the control box side, all that happens is that the control of number of stitches, such as
in automatic reverse feed stitching, does not work, so it ispossible to disconnect connector J60 (SC-120,
SC-220) or J61 (SC-320) from the main circuit board anduse the machine as a sewing machine with
automatic thread trimmer.
