Title: Reversed Jog, on Jog TAB / Control Screen
Post by: manp16 on April 21, 2019, 03:17:29 AM

Hi All

I am new to MACH 3, currently using NC Studio on my other CNC Router.

I have the problem of the Jog control operating ALL axis in reverse. At first, I thought it was the keyboard, so I changed the key association, which worked, but when I tried using the Jog Control in Mach 3, it was still reversed. I have tried a few things in the setup, but nothing I do is changing the directions. Please help.

Thanks Andrew

Config -> Homing/Limits -> Reversed should help

Thank you for the reply...I have tried this and it didn't seem to work. Do I need to do a reset or something after?

Thanks Andrew

Some changes to Mach3 do require a re-start this may be one of them ?
Perhaps try it and see.

Please see attached to reverse direction.

(I had deleted my earlier post because I thought TPS's solution would work but it will only work for ref.all home)

If it jigs the wrong way, then your axes are setup backwards.
