If this happens on older designs, it could that the thread detection "magically" was turned off in DS. Therefore when loaded into AOS it is still off. Do a spot check on the designs that you know you have had a problem by looking to see if the thread/bobbin detection is turned on for all needles.

When this happens the machine keeps running and it just keeps spitting out thread making a huge mess. I have my sensors turned on. This doesn't happen everytime. There are other times when the machine will stop when the thread breaks or the bobbin runs out--like it is supposed to. Any ideas???
