2) Label attaching is performed by the automatic one-shot stitching with the CP-180
(Method) Select mark on the CP-180, and turn ON mark of the automatic one-shot stitching.



(Explanation) Number of stitches at the section CD can be set up to 500 stitches. If the stitch length is 2 mm, it is
possible to sew approximately 1,000 mm (1 m).
This function can perform the automatic one-shot stitching without using the material end sensor
(ED : optional). Therefore, the sewing machine performs the sewing to the last according to the
sewing pattern even if the label is not located at the end of material when the pedal is depressed
once.
