Creative designer

The Creative Designer belongs to the equipment of the Pfaff Creative 1473 CD.

This appliance is used for entering motifs of your own design in the P-memories of the sewing machine computer. They can be recalled for sewing whenever required.

The motifs are drawn and the stitch points marked out in the matrix of a programming card.

- There are 16 programming memories available from P 0 to P 15, each of which holds a maximum of 999 stitches. Altogether you can input 3,260 stitches, distributed over various P-memories.

• When the machine is switched off, the stored programs are preserved.
• You will find examples for free programming at the end of these instructions.

The Creative Designer is provided with a pad of programming cards. Further pads can be obtained from the Pfaff dealer against charge.

The programming card

Patterns of your own design are drawn in the matrix on the programming card.

The length data are read off scale "L" from 00 to 198, and the breadth data off scale "B" from 00 to 54. Each intersection point of the matrix lines represents a stitch point. The number charts on the front and back of the card are for entering the length and width data when the stitch points have been numbered. 300 stitch points can be entered in one card. If this is not enough, a further card can be used. A pattern may also consist of several programming cards (matrices). In this case, each matrix is entered in a P-memory and all of them together, one after the other, in an M-memory. The first card of the pad provided is a sample card which explains how to input a motif.

How to draw your own design

There are three possibilities of drawing a pattern in the matrix area:

1. Horizontally continuous pattern or single pattern, Fig. 1.
2. Vertically continuous pattern or single pattern, Fig. 2.
3. Assembled pattern, as a single pattern, with a width of 18 mm, Fig. 3.

Now draw your pattern in the matrix.

The pattern should touch line 00 of length-data scale "L", see Figs. 1, 2 and 3. The motif can be designed as a single pattern (Fig. 4) or as a continuous one (Fig. 4a).

Please note:

Arrow denotes sewing direction

Technical drawing with dimensioned shapes and grid background, showing top and bottom views with numerical coordinates.

The distance between each pattern should be five or more squares (Fig. 1). With single patterns the distance between the individual motifs can be determined by shifting the fabric.

The first and last stitch of a continuous pattern must be on the same width line, (00–54) of the matrix (Fig. 6).

Now establish length points.

Always set the points at the intersections of the lines. Every point means the needle penetration in the material. Select between 4 and 7 squares for the length and width. Only on curves should the points be drawn more densely, at a distance of roughly 2 to 5 squares, (Fig. 3).

Sewing of patterns with zigzag stitch requires a shorter length. In each case the length should be equal to one square (Fig. 4).

Vumbering the stitch points

The stitch points have to be numbered consecutively according to the path of the needle. Afterwards, the data for length and width are entered in the corresponding number chart, i.e. stitch 1 in square 1, 2 in 2, etc. (Fig. 1).

The advantage of numbering the stitch points is that they specify the sewing path of the needle and can thus be retraced. This is important for complicated motifs which contain a number of double sewn segments. In double sewn segments the stitch points will have several numbers (Fig. 2).

Important notes

• In order to avoid mistakes while working with the wire-cross magnifier it is important to sit at the Designer in the correct position. When you align the control with a stitch point you must look vertically into the magnifier.
• When you press "mem -" key 47 BL the position of the wire-cross magnifier is automatically registered by the sewing machine computer as basic position B00/L00. For this reason, whenever you select a P-memory between 0 and 15 be sure the wire-cross magnifier is at the correct basic position 00, i.e. the far left bottom position.
  ● Always keep the Creative Designer in a dry place and never store it on or near a heater, stove, etc.
• Do not place any objects on or in the Designer.
• If something goes wrong with the Designer it must only be repaired by the manufacturer.
  ● After using the Creative Designer always first insert the connection lead in retainer 3, then push adjustable slide 4 fully to the right and close cover 2.

Transferring P-memories to M-memories

If you wish to combine your freely programmed pattern (e.g. "Lale") with programs from the stitch table (from 00 to 177), you must transfer the corresponding P-memory to an M-memory.

Example:

Fig. 1 consists of the following programs:

2 x 46 P 6 (Lale) 2 x 46

• Select a free M-memory
  ● Press program entry key 48
• Select program 46
  ● Press program entry key twice
• Press "memory" key 30
• Select the P-memory
• Press program entry key (The pattern of the P-memory is now in the M-memory)
• Select program 46
  ● Press program entry key twice
  ● Press individual pattern key
• Press "memory" key The pattern is now ready for sewing.

Fig. 2 shows an assembled pattern combined with program 127.

• For procedure concerning assembled patterns see page ...
  ● Finally, add program 127 at the ends of the stalks.
• Press the individual-pattern key. A pattern consisting of several P-memories can be transferred to an M-memory for continuous sewing.

Changing the pattern width

Patterns can be changed to different widths with keys 8. When drawing the pattern in the matrix please note the following:

Patterns with consistent right edge (Fig. 1)

To vary a pattern with consistent right edge:

● the right outer stitch point must be at B 54
● the left outer stitch point must not lie on B 00 (Fig. 1 a).

M W W

Patterns with consistent left edge (Fig. 2)

To vary a pattern with consistent left edge:

● the right outer stitch point must not lie on B 54, but
● the left outer stitch point must lie on B 00 (Fig. 2a).

Input the stitch points in the sewing machine. For continuous sewing in different pattern widths (Figs. 1 and 2) put the P-memory into an M-memory.

Example:

• Select a free M-memory
• Push "mem+" key 48
• Select the P-memory with the programmed motif
• Push "mem+" key
• Push "pattern start" key 26 and change the stitch width to 8
• Push "mem+" key
• Push "pattern start" key and change the stitch width to 7
• Push "mem+" key
• Push "memory" key

Now the pattern in the P-memory is stored in an M-memory in three different stitch widths and can be sewn.

Adapting freely programmed patterns with the balance key

Depending on the fabric type, a pattern may finish distorted. With balance keys 5 of the sewing machine, the pattern can be corrected.

• If the pattern is not closed (Fig. 1) it must be corrected with balance keys 5, between +1 and +7.
• If the pattern is crossed over (Fig. 2) it must be corrected with balance keys 5, between -1 and -7. Carry out a sewing test on a piece of waste material.

Pattern in centre position

If you wish to alter your pattern from the centre outwards, your drawing has to be made in such a way that the two outermost stitch points are the same distance from line B 26.

● Enter the stitch points.
- Push "memory" key 30.
The display shows the maximum stitch width and stitch length.
- Press the "single pattern" key.
● Sew the first pattern until the machine stops.
● Alter the stitch width to a pattern width of 4.5 mm with keys 8.
- Sew the modified pattern until the machine stops.
- Alter the stitch width to a pattern width of 3.5 mm with keys 8.
- Sew the modified pattern until the machine stops (Fig. 2).

If you wish to sew your entered program consecutively with only one stitch width, select the required stitch width. The "single pattern" key does not have to be pressed (Fig. 3).

Important:

If you wish to alter the width of a consecutive pattern in centre position, your drawing in the matrix must touch lines 00 and 54.

Checking the stitch length and width data of the stitch points

If the sewn pattern does not correspond with the drawn motif (Fig. 2), one or more stitch points have been wrongly input.

To find the wrong stitch inputs proceed as follows: The Designer should not be connected.

- Push "mem -" key 47 (BL). On the right in the sewing machine display the next higher stitch number than the total number of stitches in the input motif appears.

- Push key 5- (keys 5 now have the function of counting stitches).

The number of the last stitch point of a motif appears.

The length and width data of this stitch can now be checked with the motif drawing on the programming card.

- Push key 5- again The next lower stitch appears and can also be checked. All further stitches are checked in the same way.

Please note: after stitch 1, a "1" appears with the same length and width data with a flashing point. For the purpose of fault finding it is easier to number the stitch points from the first to the last stitch (Fig. 1). When the fault has been found it is marked on the programming card and corrected as described on the following pages.

Correction:

• Connect the Creative Designer to the sewing machine.
  Insert the programming card with the motif for correction (Fig. 1 a) into the Creative Designer and adjust it.
• Set the magnifier over the marked stitch with the wrong data (Fig. 2).
• Press "memory" key on the Designer. The stitch is now erased.
  Press "m e m -" key 47 on the sewing machine. The stitch is now cancelled.
• Set the magnifier over the correct stitch point (Figs. 3 and 1 a).
  ▶ Check the indications in the display
• and press "mem+" key 11 on the Designer (Fig. 4).
  The stitch has now been corrected.
  ▶ Check the corrected motif by sewing it again.

The Creative Designer comes as standard equipment with the Creative 7570 and enables you to design your own patterns up to a width of 9 mm. The desired motif is drawn on a programming sheet. This template is inserted in the Creative Designer and transferred into the sewing machine's memory by a cross-wire magnifier stitch by stitch. 30 program memories are at your disposal, form P0 to P29. When switching off the sewing machine, the saved programs will be retained, providing that the batteries have been inserted into the machine.

Ready-to-sew pattern templates are available from your PFAFF dealer.

The programming sheet

The Creative Designer is provided with a pad of programming sheets. The self-created motifs are drawn on the grid of the programming sheet. The width of the drawing area is marked with numbers 00-54. This width equals 9 mm of an embroidered motif, i.e. a spacing of 6 squares per 1 mm. The length of the grid is marked with

numbers 00-198, i.e. the total pattern length can be up to 33 mm.

The pattern should touch line 00 of the grid. The motif can be designed as single pattern or as continuous pattern. The first and last stitch of a continuous pattern should be placed on the same width coordinate of the grid.

1. As a pattern combination by means of the

"pattern mirror" key (18): max. height 33 mm

Placing the stitch points (stitches)

By drawing stitch points into your design you are setting the stitch length of your pattern at the same time. Each point represents one needle penetration in the material. The optimum distance of the points (width and length) is between 4 and 7 squares. Only on curves should the points be drawn more densely, at a distance of roughly 2-5 squares.

After that, the stitch points can be consecutively numbered according to the sewing course of the pattern. This will facilitate the input of the stitch points for complicated patterns consisting of parts to be sewn over several times.

The distance between continuous patterns should be 5 or more squares at the end of each pattern. In the case of single patterns you can determine the distance between the patterns by moving the fabric.

If you are embroidering a motif with zigzag stitches, the length points must be set very densely. The ideal distance is 1 to 2 squares.

Make sure to keep a continuous logical sequence corresponding to the sewing course of the machine. (Interruptions within the motif will also be embroidered!)

Pattern combinations (mirroring)

The pattern is sewn in two phases. Draw one half of the pattern on the programming sheet and enter it into the p-memory.

Sew the pattern half with the "single pattern key" (16). Now press the "pattern mirror" key (17) and sew the mirror image of the pattern. Make sure that the needle enters the fabric at pattern start point "A" of the first pattern.

The maximum width for mirrored patterns is 18 mm.

Changing the pattern width

The numbered keys 5 and 6 can be used to change the width of a programmed pattern. If you wish to change your pattern without changing the top edge, the pattern start and pattern end points must lie on B 54. The pattern must not be drawn over the entire width of the grid, i.e. there must not be any stitch points on B 00.

If you wish to change your pattern without changing the bottom edge, the pattern start and pattern end points must lie on B 00. The pattern must not be drawn over the entire width of the grid, i.e. there must not be any stitch points on B 54.

Pattern combinations in two or more p-memories

It is possible to design wider patterns by using more than one p-memory for the motif. Tape two or more programming sheets (in our example 4) together and draw your design on the grid. Decide upon and mark a pattern start "A" for each individual programming sheet.

Ensure that the sewing machine only has to sew in one direction (in our example from top to bottom).

1

A

Separate the programming sheets so that you have 4 pattern sections. Enter each section in a separate p-memory. Start at point "A" of the right programming sheet and enter the pattern stitch by stitch (number the pattern if necessary). Overlaps may occur. "E" marks the end of the pattern section on each programming sheet.
Enter the second section in the second p-memory beginning here again at point "A". Enter the rest of the sections in the same way.

And this is how the motif looks when finished. This example was sewn from right to left. Sew the p-memories one after the other with the single pattern key 15.

Make sure that the needle enters the fabric at pattern start point "A" of the previously sewn pattern half.

Whether sewing a blouse, a shirt, bed linen or whatever you desire, the Creative Designer allows you to realize all of your embroidery ideas.

Adjusting the balance

On varying types of fabric, a freely programmed pattern can change unexpectedly. In order to correct the actual embroidery result use the balance feature for the backwards feed.

After saving the pattern in the memory press numeric key 6 for symbol ☐. An indicator scale with symbols "+" and "-" appears on the right-hand side of the screen.

Use cursor keys "←" and "→" to change the machine's backwards feed within a range of -7 to +7.

If the pattern is not closed, the correction must be made with cursor key "→" within a range of +1 to +7, i.e. the machine sews longer backwards stitches and the pattern is closed.

If the pattern overlaps, the correction must be made with cursor key "←" within a range of -1 to -7, i.e. the machine sews shorter backwards stitches and the pattern is sewn more open.

Creative card

The Creative offers the possibility to file all the patterns you have designed with the Designer on the "Creative card". This ensures that the patterns you have created yourself will be saved for good. The advantage is that you can make your p-memories available for new patterns without losing a single pattern.

A number must be assigned to each new Creative card. This number must be entered since the machine recognizes the card by its number (see Instruction Book 7570, page 95).

Saving a pattern on the Creative card

Insert the Creative card in slot (47) on the machine. After selecting an occupied p-memory the sewing screen appears and the selected pattern is displayed. By pressing key 7 underneath "card" you save the current pattern on the Creative card. Two messages appear consecutively:

If the message "wrong card or no card, o.k.?" appears, you must check whether the card has been inserted correctly or whether the card inserted is actually a Creative card. To delete the message from the display press the "o.k." key.

"please wait" and "o.k.". Now the pattern is saved.

Programming a p-pattern into an m-memory

If you wish to combine your freely programmed patterns with the programs from the machine, you must program the corresponding p-memory into an empty m-memory. Select an empty m-memory and enter the pattern (e.g. 194).

Now select the p-memory containing the desired pattern. The pattern is displayed along with the length and width data, which you can still edit before saving it (as described below). On the right-hand side of the display the message "Save with o.k." appears. When pressing the "o.k." key the p-pattern will be saved in the m-memory.
