General Mach Discussion / image flipping
« on: November 03, 2016, 06:57:25 PM »
I am not sure if this is a Mach3 or an Aspire question, but here it goes.
I recently installed Aspire. When I finish creating an image, i have to reverse it before I can calculate tool paths otherwise it cuts backwards on the table. It appears to be flipped right side to left, but not top to bottom. Is there a button or something in Mach 3 or Aspire that needs to be checked so it will cut the image as drawn on the screen without having to software / machine reverse it?
I have a 6040z with no switches. I basically center the bit on the board that i am working and zero X,Y and Z making center of the board home on each piece. Hope that makes since.
Thanks for any help or suggestions in advance
