Title: table and screen going opposite.
Post by: jaustin on June 27, 2014, 07:07:55 PM
Had computer issues and thought I had a back up, been talking with support and got some of my issues figured out.
Now the biggest thing is my table and the view on the computer while running are running opposite of each other.
i been trying changing stuff around and can not get it figured out.

ex White line on screen is going right to left and the table on the mill is going left to Right.
how do I correct this?

Hi Jaustin,

I understand your confusion, it takes a while to get to grips with the movements.
Basically, the screen display shows movement of the tool (cutter, spindle etc.) across the work piece so for example; with a mill the table would move to the left for the tool to move to the right across the work piece.

Hope this helps.

got it figured out and don't know exactly what fixed it
if my screen shows the end mill being in the lower left of the screen it is on the lower left part of my table.
