YAY, I’m all set! Thanks Becky. Your knowledge of technology is awesome. One question. I transferred a design to my Luminaire, and inside the design transfer screen, it still shows the design in the writing list. If I want to keep that cleared out once I transfer the design, it looks like all I have to do is right click, and select Remove from writing list. Is there any reason I would want to keep the design in the writing list? Thanks.

@PowerToolsWithThread 2 жыл бұрын

No reason to keep it at all. You can always add it back if you ever need to. I like to delete mine to keep it all nice and neat. Also, you'll need to go in every once in awhile and delete the designs in your machine that you sent over wirelessly. Thanks!

HI Becky. I wound this by searching for Baby Lock instead of Brother (I have a Solaris 2) but, it says I have to contact my dealer to get it, even though its free. I have Embrilliance and have used WIFI to transfer designs to my machine before but cannot figure out how to do it again. Which of your videos shows how to send designs from Embrilliance to my machine?

@PowerToolsWithThread 2 жыл бұрын

Hi Ellen, just download the DDT like I showed and use it exactly the same. It works! No dealer intervention required. :) In Embrilliance, just go to Utility in the top menu, then Send to Solaris/XP1. It's the same technology. Enjoy!

@PowerToolsWithThread Жыл бұрын

I believe that's an issue with the machine vs. the DDT software. I've heard of this before. Please contact your dealer. Some machines had a hiccup in their wireless after Artspira was installed (if that's what happened). Some have told me that their dealers replaced their new machines because of this issue. Be insistent - it's not you or the DDT utility software. Brother is aware of this because I talked to some of the reps at the last Houston Quilt Fest about it and they channeled it back to them (or so they said).

@PowerToolsWithThread 2 жыл бұрын

Usually when you buy a design, it comes as a zip file you'll need to extract. Then it should be as easy to drag/drop into a folder where you store your designs to transfer. Grab the pes file with your mouse (don't double click) and drag it to a folder to use to transfer. I created a folder on my desktop called EmbDesigns that is just for my files to transfer to my machines.
