Abstract
Control data such as data designating the order of changing color of thread, conversion parameter designating reducing or enlarging of an embroidery design and data designating the number of repetition of the same design are set to desired states and these control data are stored in a memory in correspondence to storage of stitch data of a desired embroidery design. Further, for editing the embroidery design, running of the embroidering machine can be temporarily stopped at a desired stitch during running for actual embroidering operation to change the operation mode to an embroidery design data editing mode while confirming an actually embroidered design pattern. During this temporary stopping, data editing processing such as changing, deletion or insertion of stitch data at the desired stitch is executed. Further, a desired embroidery design can be displayed and stitch data editing processing such as setting or changing of function data concerning a desired stitch can be made while confirming the embroidery design by watching this display. Furthermore, the embroidering machine can be provided with a function to communicate with an external device and stitch data and control data can be transmitted and received by utilizing this communication function.
