The procedure for programming with commands is as follows.

1. Enter the programming screen

Select and then press to display the programming screen.

Press and hold to switch to programming with commands mode if necessary.

The work clamp moves to the home position and the programming screen is displayed.

2. Position the needle point at the start point of pattern sheet

Move the pressure frame with , and then press when the needle point is at the start point of
the pattern.

The following screen appears when finish programming the start point.

3. Create program
Select and input commands to create the desired pattern. The data is valid until deletion.
For more details refer to [PD-3000 INSTRUCTION MANUAL].
4. Enter an end code
Enter an end code when programming is complete.
