Update instructions PFAFF® creative vision™ and creative™4.0 sewing and embroidery machine

This instruction is valid for any previous creative vision™ or creative™4.0 software version. It’s a very good idea to register your machine. This is done via 4D configure on your PC and with your embroidery machine connected to your PC.

See your manual for more information. As registered, you will get PFAFF® news but also an automatic message when a new software version is available.

How to download the latest version

There are two ways to retrieve the new software. Either use the smart update feature via your 4D configure or simply download it from www.pfaff.com. Look for Embroidery Machines and Machine updates. Download the latest available software version for your embroidery machine to your PC.

Before updating your machine

The update will delete all user-saved data such as designs, stitches and other saved files. If you want to keep them you have to move them to a secondary memory such as a USB-stick. You don’t have to bother about the built-in designs and stitches as they will be updated by the software.

If you want to save your personal files do the following:

•Select “Files and Folders” in the selection menu bar at the bottom of the screen.

•Select the “Personal files” icon to open that folder.

•Touch each of the files you wish to save. Note it’s possible to multi select designs but stitches and other files have to be handled one by one.

•Touch copy.

•Make sure you have inserted your USB embroidery stick or other external memory device to your sewing machine.

•Select the “External Device” icon to open that folder. Select your USB Embroidery Stick or other device and open it.

•Click paste. A window with an hour glass and progress bar opens. The copying may take some time depending on

how many files you have copied.

Note: If you have saved personal stitches under the stitch category personal menu that you want to keep you first have to give them a name and save them in your personal folder.

Update your machine

Double click on the downloaded software update file in your PC. The software will unpack itself and start. Select installation language and click Next and follow the instruction.
