I finally got my V1.20 Update installed on my Elna eXcellence 900 (same as the Janome 12000) and it showed as the current version when I finished in install. The RE18 (5.5 x 7) hoop did not show up on

Has anyone done the V1.20 Update for either the Janome 12000 or the elna 900? I have ordered the RE18 hoop and this is the update so the machines will recognize it. The instructions for the Elna are c

Hi Moira, My Elna is supposed to arrive tomorrow!! I will probably spend a couple of days playing with it, although it is a lot like the Janome's that I have had. Mary Virus-free. www.avast.com
