Note:
If you are using Wilcom for the first time with your TOYOTA, you must clear out any designs prior to transmitting when designs in the machine are from other software. This is a onetime process. If you continue using Wilcom, you do not need to clear out the TOYOTA. Always store as job #1. Sending the next design requires preparing the TOYOTA machine to accept the next design.
Note:
The machine won’t accept transmission if slot one is not open prior to transmitting.In Machine Manager when TOYOTA Serial is selected, sending the next design requires preparing the Toyota machine to accept the next design. In Machine Manager with Toyota Serial, the "Send Next Design" icon on the toolbar is grayed out due to the Auto Download being selected in the Embroidery Machine Connection dialog box. Users are not able to disable this feature when using TOYOTA Serial.
You must always select #1 for input each time. As you prepare the TOYOTA for each design, the next design in the Machine Manager queue is automatically sent to the machine. Do this for each design. One by one they are loaded into the next available slot on the machine, even though you select #1 for every design.
