II. SET-UP
SC-920 is a discrete control box and can be used with the DD (direct-drive) system sewing machine head.
To use a compact motor unit, the motor unit has to be installed on the table in prior to the installation of the con-
trol box on it. To connect the SC-920 to a compact motor, assemble them referring to "M92 SUPPLEMENTARY
SETUP INSTRUCTIONS".
In the case the SC-920 is used for the DD (direct-drive) type sewing machine head, install the control box on the
table following the instructions give below.

1. Changing over the voltage between 100 V and 200 V
WARNING :
To prevent personal injuries caused by electric shock hazards or abrupt start of the sewing machine,
carry out the work after turning OFF the power switch and a lapse of 5 minutes or more. To prevent
accidents caused by unaccustomed work or electric shock, request the electric expert or engineer of
our dealers when adjusting the electrical components.
* The illustration below shows the PWR-T PCB.
The type of PCB differs by destination.

Depending on specications of the control box, the
number of phases and the voltage of the power supply
can be changed over among "single-phase 100 - 120 V,"
"single-phase 200 - 240 V" and "3-phase 200 - 240 V."
Replacement of the power cords
①
Changing-round of connector ❶ on the PWR PCB
②
1) Turn OFF the power with the power switch after
checking that the sewing machine has stopped.
2)
Draw out the power cord from the power receptacle
after checking that the power switch has been turned
OFF. Then wait for 5 minutes or more.
3) Loosen the screws which x the cover of the control
box. Open the cover in a slow manner.
4) Changing procedure of the power voltage
(Caution) If the supply power changing is carried out
in a wrong manner, the control box can
break. Be extremely careful when taking the
supply voltage changing procedure.
A. To change over the supply voltage from 200 -
240 V to 100 - 120 V
• Change the power cord with the JUKI genuine
cord with the part number (M90355800A0).
Change the earth cord with the one with the part
number (M90345800A0).
• Change over supply voltage changeover connector
mounted on the PWR PCB with the
❶
connector for 100 V.
• Connect the crimp style terminal of AC input cord
to the power plug as shown in the gure A.
B,C. To change over the supply voltage from 100 -
120 V to 200 - 240 V
• Change the power cord with the JUKI genuine
cord with the part number (M90175800A0).
• Change over supply voltage changeover connector
mounted on the PWR PCB with the
❶
connector for 200 V.
• Connect the crimp contact of the AC input cord
to the power plug as illustrated in Fig. B for the
3-phase power supply or as illustrated in Fig. C
for the single-phase one.
5) Before closing the door, check to be sure again that
the voltage has been changed without mistake.
6) Close the back lid and secure with the screws
pressing the lid, while taking extra care to prevent
the cord from being caught between the cover and
the main body of the control box.
(Caution)
Be sure to remove the connec-
tor while holding its locking
section with your ngers. Be
extremely careful not to pull
Locking section

2. Installing to the table
In the case the SC-920 is used for the DD (direct-drive) type sewing machine head, install the control box on the
table following the instructions give below.
The description given below refers to the case the
SC-920 is installed on the table of the DDL-9000B. To
❶
use any other machine head, install the control box
on the table referring to the Instruction Manual for the
main body of the relevant sewing machine.
1) Install the control box to the table with the tting
bolt (asm.) ❶ supplied with the unit as acces-
sories. At this time, insert the nut and washer
supplied with the unit as accessories as shown
in the gure so that the control box is securely
xed.
2) After having installed the control box (and the
compact motor) on the table, mount the sewing
machine head on the table. (Refer to the Instruc-
tion Manual for the sewing machine to be used.)

5. Production support function
The production support function consists of three different functions (six different modes) such as the production
volume management function, operation measuring function and bobbin counter function. Each of them has its
own production support effect. Select the appropriate function (mode) as required.
Production volume management function

Target No. of pcs. display mode [F100]
Target/actual No. of pcs difference display mode [F200]
The target number of pieces, actual number of pieces and the difference between the target and actual
number of pieces along with the operation time are displayed to notify the operators of a delay and advance
in real time. Sewing machine operators are allowed to engage sewing while constantly checking his/her
work pace. This helps raise target awareness, thereby increasing productivity. In addition, a delay in work
can be found at an early stage to enable early detection of problems and early implementation of corrective
Sewing machine availability status is automatically measured and displayed on the control panel. The data
obtained can be used as basic data to perform process analyses, line arrangement and equipment efcien-
cy checkup.

8. Detailed explanation of selection of functions
Selection of the soft-start function (Function setting No. 1)
①
The needle thread may fail to interlace with the bobbin thread at the start of sewing when the stitching pitch (stitch
length) is small or a thick needle is used. To solve such problem, this function (called “soft-start”) is used to limit
the sewing speed, thereby assuring successful formation of the starting stitches.
0 : The function is not selected.
1 to 9 : The number of stitches to be sewn under the soft-start mode.
10
The sewing speed limited by the soft-start function can be changed.
Data setting range
3 7080
100 to MAX sti/min <10 sti/min> (The MAX value differs by machine head.)
Material end sensor function (Function setting No. 2 to 4, 76)
②
This function is possible when the material end sensor is attached.
For details, refer to
material end sensor.
(Caution) This function is rendered effective only with the CP-18.
Flicker reducing function (Function setting No. 5)
③
The function reduces ickering of the hand lamp at the start of sewing.

⑤
This function turns OFF thread trimming solenoid output and wiper solenoid output when thread trimming is
actuated.
(Caution) This function is rendered effective only with the CP-18.
By this function, separate sewing material can be spliced and sewn without trimming thread.
0 : off Thread trimming is operative. (thread can be trimmed).
1 : on Thread trimming is inoperative. (thread can not be trimmed).
Setting of the needle bar stop position when the sewing machine stops (Function setting No. 10)
⑥
The position of the needle bar when the pedal is in its neutral position is specied.
0 : Down The needle bar stops in the lowest position of its stroke.

sensor neutral position before using the sewing machine. (Refer to “III-9. Automatic compensation
of neutral point of the pedal sensor” p.39.)
2. When you carry out the aforementioned operation, the machine-head adjustment values are also
initialized. It is therefore necessary to carry out adjustment of the machine head before using the
sewing machine. (Refer to “II-7. Adjusting the machine head (direct-drive motor type sewing ma-
chine only)” p.14.)

IV. MAINTENANCE
1. Removing the rear cover
WARNING :
To prevent personal injuries caused by electric shock hazards or abrupt start of the sewing machine,
remove the cover after turning OFF the power switch and a lapse of 5 minutes or more. To prevent
personal injuries, when a fuse has blown out, be sure to replace it with a new one with the same
capacity after turning OFF the power switch and removing the cause of the blown-out of the fuse.
1) Press the OFF button of the power switch to turn
OFF the power after conrming that the sewing ma-
chine has stopped.
2) Draw out the power cord coming from the power
plug socket after conrming that the power switch
is turned OFF. Perform the work of step 3) after
conrming that the power has been cut and it has
passed for 5 minutes or more.

lever is caught in something.
• Check whether the contact of the tilt detec-
tion switch lever with the machine table is
inadequate. (The table has a dent or the
mounting location of the bed strut is too far)
• Check the machine-head tilt detector's connector (CN48) for looseness and slip-off.
• Positioning of the thread trimming sensor
• Set the function setting No. 74 to 0 (zero)
when the thread trimmer is not installed on
the sewing machine.
