I believe that this machine uses cards to transfer designs from the computer to the sewing machine. So you need a box that writes to the card. So you need to ask if the box comes with it, and if the box will work with your computer. If not, ask what box is on the market that you can buy that will work with this machine and with your computer.

I have the 180 which is a prior version of the 200. When I got a new computer, I could not use my box because you needed to go online to get a key to activate the box...but the company that made the box no longer exists so I can't use the box with my new computer. As a result, I had to keep my old computer to use with my box. I might have been able to buy a new box from a different mfg, but didn't want to spend the money.
