It generally starts up after I have to depress and release the emergency stop button because the green start button won't start the machine because the gremlins are playing. Once I get two missed trims, I note the stitch number, shut everything down, make some tea, and start everything back up. I have been VERY fortunate so far in that it has always trimmed after that without a problem. I remember a while back some discussion about the up arrow and left arrow on the keypad -- pressing the two of them at the same time, which makes the machine reset itself. I tried it, and got nowhere. When the XT gets tempermental, I treat it like a kid with a temper tantrum. Put it to bed and ignore it for a bit. It would be wonderful if the programmers could come up with a subroutine to clear up THAT TEMPER! =========================================================== The AmayaUsers Mailing List Website: http://www.amayausers.com Discussion Board: http://www.amayausers.com/boards Subscribe/Unsubscribe: http://www.amayausers.com/list ===========================================================
