New to the Embroidery, Just got a TMEXC-901, I have not been able to get it running because its shows a 3D6 Error Message. It's asking for a EX. SYS Disk file to initialize the CPU, but there was no floppy that came the Machine, If someone has this file or can get it for me. or point me to the right directions, thanks everyone :)

call Tajima service, they will email you the file. you just need to transfer it to a floppy disk and follow install procedure, should not take you more than 15 min to get back up and running.

I solved 3D6 error for Tajima with panel like in attached files.
First I changed the CPU card battery and after I installed the software.
You can try to install the software without to change the battery,but I don t know....
The CPU battery is located on Big panel card(see picture)
You have attached the model of battery
Tajima machines with white panel is possible to have an additional memory card,with own battery.
Check also this battery.

I'm in the same boat as everyone else. New to this and getting the same error message on my Tajima TMFX-C904. It does have the usb upgrade tho. Do I put the file on the usb and just plug it in?? Can someone send me the file as well. Thanks!

Ciao , ho una Tajima TMEX-C901 da un'anno ferma perchè non possiedo il EX.SYS originale e non riesco a risalire alla versione giusta da installare .
I tecnici mi hanno passato delle versioni ma con nessun successo , ogni volta mi esce un errore diverso .
Sono confusa: non so più cosa fare .
Mi potete aiutare ?
Grazie mille

Thank you very much. ;)

Normal, this error showed when the battery (panasonic vl2330 3v) on the X-CPU main board of control panel is low

You need to replace it by new one. Then install the compatible firmware.

Every machine has a different file and as far as I know you will need to install your old floppy if it has been converted to USB in order to install the EX.SYS

dgeorge is correct. The batteries will need to be changed (some have one, some two) in the control panel. They are solder-in type and not the "plug and play" like the newer ones. Once this is completed the software will have to be reloaded and the parameters reset.

Did you ever get to solve 3d6? We just experienced this error on our machine. Did the file resolve the problem?

You should do :
1) Re install the software (You need the EX.SYS file for installing)
2) If you still get this error after a few days. You need to replace the battery on CPU board before re install the software.

Hello, I have also a TMLH machine showing the 3D6 error.
I have replaced the battery but I'm not able to install the software.
I have floppy disk and the EX.SYS file. Have tried but no sucess.

My question is:

Is there anything special the floppy need, other than be formatted?
Does it need to be 720Kb or it can be a 1.44Mb diskette?
The diskett need only to be formatted, then only copy the ex.sys file (no other files need ) ?
Is there any trick to prepare the diskette..?

The original floppy disk is 720k but is damaged so I'm trying to prepare a new diskette. i have the ex.sys file stored on my computer.

Please help me!

I have just purchased a second hand TMEX C-1201-S that has the 3D6 error. If anyone has the ex.sys file handy and can send to me I would be very thankful :)

Thanks in advance!

Hi I am having the same problem, I have a TFHX-II 1504C and I get the 3D6 error, can send me the file and instructions to load the system file. It will not read a floppy file that works in another machine. I'm thinking I didn't install correctly.
Thank you
