Thanks to Cheryl in Oz, whose dealer demonstrated her new 440 for her before she took it home. She told me to try turning the machine off and pushing in the button before installing the BSR and turning it on. I did it and the button actually went in and stayed in. I installed the BSR and it works beautifully. I did a little sample with curves and loops and feathers and it looks so nice.
What a relief! I don't have to take the machine back to the dealer on Tuesday!!!! RCTQers are the best. :)
It's wonderful that your problem is fixed, Carole, and I'm very happy for you. It is even more wonderful that Cheryl's eyesight is still letting her read the newsgroup >gThanks to Cheryl in Oz, whose dealer demonstrated her new 440 for her
I'm delighted that works for you, Carole (and hi, Cheryl, if you're reading this!), but you shouldn't have to turn the machine off to do this; I never do on my 630, nor did I on the 440 I had for a while.
Once I got it to work the first time, I don't have to turn the machine off to press the button. It works "whenever" at this point!
