Additional Information:
BERNINA & Windows® 10
PDC for artista 165 /170 / 180 / 185
The Personal Design Card for the artista 165 /170 / 180 / 185 can now only be read out and in via the appropriate embroidery computers (embroidery module).
The reader/writer box provided for this purpose can no longer be used.
USB 2.0 PCMCIA reader/writer box
The Personal Design Card for the artista 200 / 730 can no longer be used directly with the USB 2.0 reader/writer box, since Win 10 no longer supports this reader/writer.

Each computer may be configured differently, and its individual settings may affect how software and hardware attempt to operate on it. There is a chance that unknown problems may arise with your BERNINA embroidery software or hardware on any operating system.
