Galil / Motors does not jog correctly, please help.

HI
I have retrofitted an Okuma LSN-10. Currently I'm using a Galil 1880 and have Allen Bradley motors and control, the 1394 system. I have the machine perfectly working on Camsoft, but due to the CNCLite system I have, I can not cut thread, nor can I use constant surface machining etc. So i reconfigured it on Mach3.
My problem is that when I jog the lathe the axes moves only positively and when I want to reverse, nothing happens. I checked and rechecked the settings, to no avail. Funny that when I restart in Camsoft everything perfect again.
I would greatly appreciate if someone can assist me or show me in the right way.
