Brother PR1055X assigning thread color to design and machine spool and setting stop after stitchout.

[@kristyhuber7835]

Ty. I’m trying to find a video on a couple of things - I currently have each of my threads anchored but my machine keeps changing one of them to match what is on spool 10 (I know this one can’t be anchored). It also wants to stop after each color and I do t have stops added. A friend has the same issue with the stops and we’ve not found a video yet on how to prevent this. We have to hit start after every color. But I also need to figure out how to get mine to stop changing the color on me.

Do you have the little hand sign up for each of the colors? This would cause the machine to stop for each color. Not sure why the color is not anchoring for you once you set it.

Welcome to the world of embroidery! You have an excellent machine for embroidery. You do have to set the stops yourself. I am hoping to do a video on that later today actually. There are two ways to set stops and I will explain both in that video. The little hand button is the stop button and you can press it when in the step of a design and it will stop the machine before it moves to the next step but you have to do that in each step. There is another way to set stops ahead of time and I will show that and the stopping at each step in the video. Happy stitching!

What does the “anchor” actually mean? Thanks!!

It is a symbol that shows that color the you put in and then press the anchor will stay in that place until you put a new color in.
