Several changes for improved operation on HL/LHZ lock stitch zig-zag machines.
Support for machines equipped with APFHA device (factory installed)
Corrected automatic lockup problem when loading design from CF card, or when CF card inserted or removed from automat.
Corrected problem in MC 16: "S. Frame" parameter for spectacle frame operation

New Features - 6/2006

This software allows the machine to read larger CF cards, up to 2G capacity. Note that system software can only be loaded on a FAT16 CF card.
Folder capacity is increased to 100 designs per folder.

New Features - 1/11/06

Improved Error Messages
Improved CF Card control
Better Network operation
Added FDR-2 floppy disk format for Chenille Machines

New Features - 12/9/05

Automat will automatically delete un-used .bmps files on the CF card. So when you read a folder on a CF card, any .bmps not associated with a design in the folder, will be deleted. This should resolve some of the issues with customers not doing this manually as needed.
Added faster Baud rates for COM-In, and ABC mode. When you use COM/ABC mode, there is an additional "+" Icon on the menu. Pressing the "+" Icon changes the BAUD rate as indicated on this screen. It is recommended to use a speed of 57600 as a maximum. This speed is 6 times faster than the standard 9600 BAUD rate.

Notes:
A. Make sure the software (TES) is set to send at the same BAUD rate as the machine, or it will not work. If COM/ABC doesn't work, make sure to check the speed on the Machine and the Software. This can be an issue now with this new software.

B. To take full use of these new, faster speeds with TES, make sure to change the HandShake_Stop setting in TES. See these instructions. If these instructions are not followed, the speed will not increase that much.

Bar Code Scanner can be used as a shortcut for making "Program" changes, such as, "Rotate" and "Cap Frame" parameter. This feature only works with newer Automats with the Bar code scanner port. With this feature, the operator can print certain bar codes and kept them handy for scanning in the "Program" commands, instead of pressing the buttons on the Automat manually.

New Features 7/19/2005

When downloading designs to a machine using the COM port, designs can be loaded directly to the CF card by selecting and highlighting CF Drive Icon in the COM menu. This new feature allows you to download designs bigger than 65,000 stitches. This is like a memory upgrade for the machine.
You can now copy .dst and .dsb files directly to the CF card, and the machine can read them. Make a design folder on the CF card with a .TFD extension. Then you copy the .dst/.dsb files into it.

BEDT Software

This software should be copied to a CF card for updating your Barudan single head Elite models:

BEDT-ZN-101 Elite Jr
BEDT-ZQ-501 Elite Pro
BEDTHE-ZQ-C01

Please save the software attachment below to your hard drive, and then to a CompactFlash card.

Create a new folder on the CF card named SYSTEM.
Save the software download to the SYSTEM folder you just created.
Turn the power OFF at the Automat.
Insert the CF card with the new system software on it.
Press and hold the Start key, while powering ON (on the Automat) until you see the "System Version" Screen.
Select the correct system file to load by using the Jog keys, then press and hold the Execute key for 5 seconds to start the update process.
After the update completes, seek origin as you normally would upon power-on.

Software should update automatically and may take a few minutes to complete. Once it stops and the seek origin screen appears, the machine is ready to go.
