When you select a machine format, Wilcom ES Chenille translates the commands that were applied during digitizing into machine functions that can be understood by the particular machine. If you select a Chenille template when opening a design, the machine format will default to your current machine. You can change the machine format for a design at any time. Finished designs can be sent direct to Melco's CH1 chenille machine, or stitched on Tajima and Barudan chenille machines.
This section describes how to select a machine format for a design, output it in other formats, and customize machine formats to meet your machine’s requirements.
Selecting machine formats

When you create a design, you need to select an embroidery machine format for it. You can change the machine format for a design at any time.
Note : You do not need to change the design’s native machine format in order to output to a different machine type.

Note : If a selected machine format does not support a particular function in the design — either automatically or manually inserted — it is simply ignored.
