The Lightning Stitch control system operates off of the motors known position. As a result, the user may adjust the
needle UP position electronically instead of mechanically as with other stitch regulators. To set the needle UP
position, touch the START button on the home screen. Press the JOG FWD button to advance the needle to the
desired position and then touch TEACH to set the value.
Touching the PREV button will return you to the main operator screen.
When the green button is pressed to begin sewing, the text “MACHINE RUNNING” will display across the main
operator screen (See Figure 3.5) . Pay close attention to the display. Certain stitch regulated modes will make the
machine appear as though it is in a “no sew” mode when in fact it is waiting for the machine to be moved. The
“MACHINE RUNNING” text will inform the user of the machines enabled condition.
