PROBLEM:

Your Computer has stopped communicating with your Sewing Machine Via your Serial Cable Connection.

Solution 1

 

1) clear all of sewing machine memory 
2) Clear design queue [ File > machine connection >> Design Queue ]
3) Be sure your design file name that is being sent to the sewing machine has no special characters
   and has a file name with no more than 14 Characters

4) If you are receiving a 8002 Error you may be attempting to send a design with the same file name as a design that
   is already in the queue or in your sewing machine memory.
   The Sewing machine can not overwrite a file so, if you try to send a design with the same file name to the machine      

   and it is already at the machine or in the queue you will receive an error
