Ce200 futura quantum embroidery/sewing machine

IF YOUR WINDOWS 7 UPDATED TO 64 BIT, THE SOFTWARE WONT WORK ANYMORE

The needle thread breaks
1. the needle thread is not threaded properly
2. The needle thread tension is to tight
3. The needle is bent or blunt
4. The needle is incorrectly inserted
5. The needle thread & the bobbin thread are not set under the presser foot when starting to sew
6. the threads were not drawn to the rear after sewing
7. The thread is either to heavy or to fine for the needle

I have this problem when the thread isn't locked into position under the clear plastic guide on top of the machine. You have to hear it click 2 times on the right hand side. You have to pull the tread kinda hard. Hope this helps.

It depends on your software version. The list of supported formats could be found in the manual, on Futura support site or checked right through the sofware menu (File->Open, File->Save as)

There is a patch for Windows 7 at www.future-support.com. That site is an amazing resource for the Futuras!!

Go to www.futura-support.com , click on Service Updates in the left hand column, and then click on: Click here to read detailed installation instructions. Print it out and follow the procedures. You also need to download the patch at the top of the screen.

Good Luck!

u can buy the software from here,http://www.singertexas.com

If you use the standard FUTURA software. you will have to buy an add-on for the Software.

Singer offers an add-on called Hyperfont which allows to digitize any true type font on the computer.

The software is available in stores and online, but be sure to get the right version for your software. There are versions for the Futura CE150, CE 250 etc, and there are other versions for the CE100 and CE200, so be careful.

You should also keep in mind that although you can digitize any true type font with this software, not every font is suitable for embroidering and will stitch out nicely.

Sincerely yours,

In embroidery mode, you have to send a design to the machine before the bobbin winder will work.

Futura software can read most of home embroidery formats. Because the software was developed by Compucon, you might want to prioritize XXX format. Other common formats such as PES or DST will also work great with your Futura machine.
