Output Tools and Settings 87 In the Needle Bar, click on the color you want to assign to the selected needle in the Machine Palette. The color of the selected needle in the palette changes to match the selected color from the Needle bar; notice also that the color is applied to the corresponding segments in the design preview. 6 Repeat the above steps for the remaining needles in the design palette table sequence. 7 Click Finish. The Needle Bar Sequence dialog will close. In the Design Queue, note that the preview of the design now appear with the colors as you have assigned them. Data Collection After you have installed Autograph Writer you need to configure the software for data collection, which first involves configuring the location of design spoolers. Configuring the Location of Design Spoolers A Design Spooler manages the delivery of designs to embroidery machines using cables (or, if applicable, a LAN connection). Autograph Writer can access spoolers over a network, can be configured to use the spooler running on the local computer. By default you will have access to the machines connected directly to your computer. Note that you can change the colors in the needle bar by clicking the Edit... button at the bottom of the dialog; this will re-open the Needle Palette dialog so that you can modify it. Sometimes, a design may use the same color more than once; to save time, you may want to change all instances of a color at the same time. To do this, switch from Machine Palette to Design Palette. You will now see one row in the palette for each color in the design. Then, when you change a needle color by selecting a new color from the needle bar, all instances of that color will be changed in the Machine Palette.
