Hi,

I need to have Z axis direction reversed, DRO´s and jogging are ok but machine movement is wrong direction.
In Mach3 you could just set dir pin active low to change direction but it does not change direction in MachIV? am I missing something, are pin settings not effective in MachIV?

Thank you,

Regards Mika

Very nice I had a Shizuoka! That was a nice heavy mill with 5HP on the spindle, and running off Mach3 Smiley
