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.

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.
