Updating Husqvarna Viking Designer Diamond Deluxe
I got a new metal magnetic frame so I had to update the machine in order for the machine to recognize the hoop. I spent hours last night, installing and uninstalling the 5D software, restarting my computer and finally got the computer to talk to the machine (I could have used a USB stitck).
Anyway, just when I thought I was getting close, I could not turn the machine on update mode no matter what I tried. I tried holding the two buttons down before switching the machine on, holding them at the same time, releasing the two buttons right away, keeping holding them....you name it. Nothing happened. I tried dozens of times and my machine still turns on in normal mode.
I finally went to bed after 1 am. Called the dealer and they asked whether I held the buttons down hard enough. I tried again so hard that I almost broke my fingers, nothing.
Finally I took the machine in and they did it right away, by holding 2 different buttons! As the snapshot below shows, I was asked to hold those two buttons, but at the store, their software told them to hold the Needle Up/Down and Restart Stitch button!
How frustrating is that!
Did you by any chance download the Ruby Deluxe upgrade instead of the Diamond Deluxe upgrade?
Thank you!
I am waiting for a new upgrade as there is a tension problem with the thread snapping on jump stitches using the Sensor "Q" foot.
