After uploading the batch of patterns, DesignaKnit requests a filename for the batch, which is
stored with the filename suffix .bro. If there are 900 series pattern numbers in the knitting
machine that you want to keep and are not already in DesignaKnit, they can be uploaded and
stored on the computer.
The Extract option on the Transfer menu can then be used to extract individual patterns from
the stored .bro file and save them as DesignaKnit stitch pattern files.
The Restore option takes a previously uploaded .bro file and downloads it back to the machine
or CB-1, thereby restoring the 900 series pattern numbers that were in the memory of the
machine or CB-1 at the point at which the batch was previously uploaded to the computer.

of patterns. Note the 900 series pattern number that gets assigned to each stitch pattern
in the batch - these numbers will be required later. When the required batch of patterns

or CB-1. Ensure the USB connector is attached to the computer USB port.
