Transfer Files Wirelessly to your Embroidery Machine
Просмотров 13 тыс.3 года назад
This video explains how to connect your embroidery machine to a Mini PC to allow wireless transfer of your embroidery files for Brother/Babylock/Other embroidery machines. Specifically Brother PR1055X/PR1050/PR1000e/PR655/PR650/PR600/Quattro 3 BabyLock Intrepid/Venture/Alliance/Valiant/Endurance Links: Amazon Mini PC's www.amazon.com/dp/B0912VJ124/ref=cm_sw_em_r_mt_dp_MFA7W3MWEJCK5R6PH760 www.a...
I am really grateful to these videos bc I stepped away for quuite awhile and forgot so much! Thank you!!!
I purchased the mini PC and plugged it into my embroidery machine, but I do I see the mini pc through my desktop computer, you say remote in, does that mean remote into my desktop through the mini pc, if so do I need a monitor to do this?
Thanks great info!
Do you know how to do this type of setup with a MacBook?
I’m still confused. Your title says wirelessly but you are still connected from your machine to your computer (mini) right? So if you are only working with a laptop there is no way to be wireless with your setup, correct?
With this setup, it allows you to send a design to your machine from your main computer that has the design or digitizing software on it to your machine without having to use a USB drive or walking over to you machine and plugging it in. My machines and computer are across the room from each other so this is the solution I came up with. The mini PC is small, stays connected and can stay by your machine without having to move stuff around.
So does this work for the Ellisimo and pathfinder which have an Ethernet port
No, not if you have an ethernet port. That would be an entirely different setup. You need to have a USB cable to be able to plug into your computer and when doing so, it should create a new drive letter as if the machine was a Thumb drive.
Do you have any other videos?
That's all I have. Due to lack of time and raising a busy 7 year old and a new full-time job, I have closed my business down. I still stay connected to the embroidery world though and if there is something you're looking to see, let me know and I can see what I can do.
WOW! This is fantastic!!! Thank you so much!!!
You are so welcome!
Thank You very good information.
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic. Bernina sells a $400 accessory that works only with their $2,000 software. I knew there had to be a workaround. Thanks for sharing.
You are welcome!
How do i get into the mini pc to set up the wifi and rename it?
Description, there are links to setup a remote connection using Teamviewer. You will initially need to connect the MiniPC to a monitor, mouse and keyboards to set it up with the remote connection, but once that is up and running, you can disconnect the monitor, mouse, and keyboard and just remote into the MiniPC from your main computer. Teamviewer Remote Computer Access: www.teamviewer.com Teamviewer Setup Instructions: ruclips.net/video/cBqjJ8MRAOM/видео.html
Should I put my virus software on the mini?
@@Amys_Crafts-N-ThingsNo, it's not needed unless you plan on surfing the Internet, using email, etc on the mini PC as long as you have automatic updates set to install for Windows you should be fine.
Hi there. I have a PR 1055 and the EZ Frames. If I have a design that is less than the 7 7/8" and I want to use the 8X8 frame, how do I convince my 1055 that I can use a bigger than 5x7? There must be a way or we would not have the 8x8. But to lose 3" on the one side? Please direct me.
Did I miss the wireless part?
The mini PC (with a WiFi connection) is connected to the embroidery machine. Your main computer with the embroidery design has WiFi. You send the file wirelessly over WiFi to the embroidery machine via the mini PC via the shared folder. So yes, it is wireless.
Thank you! I thought I was doing something wrong!
Welcome! Glad it was helpful.
Really appreciate you explaining this. Glad I found your channel.😊
Thank you so much! So helpful! I would love to see more videos from you!!😊
This is fine but nobody addresses what to do when the "add" button is pressed and no machine shows up, after hitting refresh still no. It worked fine before one machine update. My machine is 1 month old!
will this work with window11 and Bernina 440 qe
I followed the directions, and now my PR680W says waiting to receive embroidery data from the PC. My screen is stuck. help
Go to the settings (the little page at the bottom) go to page 5 at the top it says link- Wireless Lan, turn it off! Turn off machine restart machine it should have cleared x
I have a Brother PRS100 and a set of the fast frames - bought both used..... How a company could sell a $400 set of frames and not give any more instructions that a single 3/4 page of guidelines is beyond me-- I am not sure which arm to use: the A or B as my fast frame arm fits both, but regardless of either one, my machine never shows anything besides a 6 x 10 or 8 x 8 and tells me to choose a larger frame when I am using my 7 x 7 largest fast frame. If you can program in a hoop size (I have Embrilliance) based on inches or mm, why can you not program in the size of a fast frame and it read it?
What type of clamp do you use to hold your stabilizer?
I use a Rapesco Supaclip. It works great to hold any stabilizer on when I don't use a sticky back stabilizer. a.co/d/5VBwghc
Thanks so much for this! I've been looking for this solution for months. I just ordered mine. I do have a question though, once my mini pc arrives, do I need to do anything to set it up in order for my laptop to remote into it?
I've written up directions of what you'll need to do for both your Mini PC and your main computer. Same information in the video but a step by Step. Here's a link to the directions. bit.ly/EmbWirelessMiniPC. I'm happy to help as I have time.
Hello, I transferred a pattern, but now my screen on my machine says it’s waiting of the pc to transfer and won’t let me clear or reset. I have a Brother 680w. Thank you.
Sorry I didn't see your message until now. Were you able to get it cleared? I've never seen that happen before. It sounds like it is waiting for a Wifi transfer vs a USB transfer.
Finally, someone who is validating my findings. Thank you sooo much. I have told people how to adjust for this on various Brother Facebook Groups, yet so many people comment that they don't loose any stitching space and that their Brother Machine lines up perfectly to the center. Here is a video I made a while back, on this subject: ruclips.net/video/axVfA-szW8s/видео.html
I bought the Durkee EZ Frames for my PRS100. They do not fit right I don't know if it's something I'm doing or if it is the wrong frames. I need some help thank you
Sorry but I never saw your notification that you left a message. Being it's been 5 months, I hope you got it sorted out. My only thought would be to make sure you purchased the frame attachment specifically for the PRS100 as any other brother multi-needle arms are different. Sorry again for not responding sooner, but if you still need some help, let me know.
I really appreciated you for taking the time to create this video. Thank you👍
With nderful explanation. This really helped!!
Glad it was helpful!
Will the embroidery machine read files within folders like the physical USB does or files only?
I honestly didn't know so I had to do a quick test. It will only read files on the root drive. Anything in a folder it doesn't recognize.
@@embroiderydad4418 Thank you for your response. I also noticed when the machine was turned off then back on the removable drive had been cleared of all files. So is it safe to assume this process is only temporary and not used for permanent storage? By the way your video was very informative.
@@lindabushby692 That is correct. Once you turn the machine off any designs you transferred will clear. If you want them to stay, you need to save them to the machine memory which is retained even after turning it off.
Chad this is the last time I will bother you, but I have a Brother 3600 without a cable port. If I have a cable with 2 usb-A ends will this transfer? No problem with my Destiny with cable. I have a flash-air card for my Destiny but never figured out how to make it Wireless. Again, thanks for your help.
Unfortunately no. The connection type is not the same and it won't recognize it. If you want help with the flashair card, I can write up some instructions on how to get it up and running.
I would really appreciate it but I think I have screwed up. From previous times of trying to connect the card I have lost the SD WLAN folder on both of them. Are they still usable? Thank you. Teri
@@teribrown966 yes, we can definitely get it working. Even if the folder is gone we can recreate it. I use the flashair card for my brother Quattro 3 so have no doubt we can get it working.
@@embroiderydad4418 thank you so very much. This has been along time journey for me!😁😁
@@embroiderydad4418 Chad, is there any chance you have had time to looking into fixing my wireless flash card to make it readable with my Destiny II?
I'm having trouble getting a Mini PC at this time ( Amazon says May or June), can I do this from my original laptop? Sorry to be such a bother.
You sure can. Any windows laptop will work the same way. The mini pc is just the smallest so takes up less space. But if you have room for a laptop that certainly will work the same way. You even have a screen on the laptop so won't have to worry about using a remote control program to operate it.
Can I do this with a Babylock machine? Thank you.
Sure can. It functions the same way.
This is the only video that I have seen that will even explain how to use the wireless Lan NQ1700e when connecting to my new machine and my mac computer. I will guess that the mini pc is compatible with a macbook pro. Even the store which sells a lot of machine brands including Brother could help me with this problem I'll let you know if it works. I am using embrilliance software but I don't think it is updated with the new machines that have wireless transfers Thanks for finding the time to make this video.
I also have a Mac, what deice worked for you?
I have this same machine. Can the cord ever be unplugged to transfer files? I was under the impression this machine could connect to my laptop via wireless and share files without a USB port.
It can, but you have to use proprietary software in order to transfer the files and can't just use file explorer or save to a drive letter on your computer. For me, I use Wilcom Hatch to digitize and edit designs, add text, etc. In order to transfer directly from Hatch, I had to set it up like in my video. If you have Brother's PE Design 11, you can transfer directly from there. I hear Embrilliance has the ability to transfer directly as well. Brother did release a free software to be able to transfer designs, but it is an additional step. You have to save a design out of your software to PES format first, then you can open up their database transfer program to send the file to your machine wirelessly. It's at least something that works and free, it's just not as convenient and the most efficient. Here's the link to the free database transfer program if that helps. support.brother.com/g/s/hf/pcapp_info/ddt/en/index.html?prod=WLAN&media=i_txt Hope that helps!
I use a Mac is this possible?
I haven’t been successful😢
Cindy, I'm unfortunately not familiar with Mac computers but I'm 100% sure you can. I did a little search on RUclips for a couple videos that would do what you need. You need to share a drive when plugged in to a Mac computer. And then directions on how to map a drive on the 2nd Mac computer that you want to transfer your designs from. To share a drive on a Mac: ruclips.net/video/F_xO4-rdy7o/видео.html To map a shared drive: ruclips.net/video/iGRqTbsMWZ0/видео.html Sorry I couldn't be any more help, but with these two videos you should be able to figure it out.
Where do you purchase on of these Mini PC that allows wireless to your E. machine . I have an Ellismo Gold 2 . Thanks for the video.
You can get them on Amazon. Here's a link to one. You're looking for a fanless mini PC with windows already installed. www.amazon.com/Beelink-Windows-Celeron-Computer-Supports/dp/B09373HTN7/ref=sr_1_21?keywords=beelink+mini+pc&qid=1636347821&sprefix=beelink+mini%2Caps%2C107&sr=8-21
@@embroiderydad4418 Thank You for the reply, I was looking on Amazon . I am going to sleep on it tonight and will probable purchase one tomorrow. It is a little scarier I haven't done much with computers for a long time usually just watch you tube. I do want to get back to embroidery
Great video, thank you for taking the time to make it.
Hi, I really enjoyed your video on how you configured your embroidery machines. My wife has a Elna expressive 970(comparable to Janome mb7) & a Brother 1600e, and I would like to use your approach to enable her to wirelessly load design files to her machines. Couple of questions, the Elna 970 has the usb b port on the machine (cable included) as you mentioned as a requirement in your video. However, the Brother 1600e only has a USB port ( no cable included). Will your setup work on the Brother 1600e? Thanks!
Jaime, unfortunately not. Without the USB-B port, the machine will only read USB drives. Your best option for the Brother machine is to find an Flashair Card which is a wifi enabled SD card. Unfortunately they have been discontinued so you'd have to find a used one. Due to the high demand of them, their price has skyrocketed recently so they aren't cheap. I was lucky and found one as part of digital camera sale on Facebook marketplace that was cheaper for the whole camera and card than buying just the card. The seller didn't realize that the aircards were selling for so much. If you go that route, let me know and I can help you get it setup as well as it requires some special file configuration.
Chad,, I appreciate your reading my message and for responding so quickly. I had seen the Toshiba FlashAir card being used in a couple of RUclips videos, but they are very expensive. I did try to hookup a laptop (Windows10) to the Elna 970 using the USB-B port and unfortunately never saw a drive letter assigned to the machine. I’ll try again, maybe I did something wrong. Anyway, thanks again for getting back to me.
@@jaimemendoza2946 I've always been a Brother machine user so am not terribly familiar with Elna. So I did some digging and read through the manual. It looks like they made it proprietary and need their digitizer v5 software to be able to transfer files. Here's what the manual states: Direct PC-Link - The machine can be connected to PC with the USB cable included as standard accessory. You need Digitizer V5 software (optional item) to operate the machine via direct PC-link. 1. Type A USB connector 2. Type B USB connector 3. Transferring the data Connecting the Machine and PC Start up the machine and PC, and insert the type A USB connector into the PC. Insert the type B USB connector into the USB port on the machine. For operating instructions, refer to the instruction manual of Digitizer V5.
@@chads5980 You are absolutely right. Something to consider if another machine is purchased in the future. Thanks for the info about the Elna machine.
@@jaimemendoza2946 Definitely! Good luck!
Thank you for making this for us!
You're welcome! Hope it helps make embroidery life easier.
