Registration Problems _ Help ASAP!

[Pure Embroidery]

Sewed a design this morning and needle began to strike the hoop. Noticed that my "hoop detect" was off, and so was the force rack home option.

Turned off machine, reloaded, same problem.

Now I have noticed that the hoop does not line up properly on the thread plate. It's not centered. I've tried the "center Hoop" option and it returns to the same place.

Now, I know the registration is not right. The OS help guide says to perform a registration test and to see the amaya tech manual for instructions. I don't have a tech manual. So has anyone done this test that can walk me through it?

Have 144 hats and 40 shirts to finish TODAY, and I am one machine down. Help please.

If you turn off the hoop limites, then you must do a trace to make sure that the needle or the presserfoot does not hit the hoop.

The tech manual is on a CD that came with your machine.

Found the tech manual. I have adjusted the design to be off-center so that it will sew correctly, but I still have to fix the registration problem. Has anyone done this before?

Tech manaual talks about an alignment fixture and adjusting the X and Y axis sensors until they "light up".

If anyone has done this, some help would be appreciated.

Perhaps your design origin (Center) is not in the center. If you turn on the center lines in the OS or DS you can tell. Re center the design and try again.
