Title: Reversed Axis (Stepper Motor)
Post by: BenGatti on August 27, 2006, 05:38:20 PM

I have a home-built machine with a xylotex 3-axis servo suite. X and Z are fine, but Y is reversed. Any idea how to setup Mach to reverse a stepper. I tried inputting a negative number into the "Set Steps per Unit" function - but it shut down the channel.

All help appreciated.

Config menu then ports and pins then motor outputs. Change the Dir Low active to the opposite of what you have now on the Y axis.
