LazyCam (Beta) / Z axis inverts when posting g code from LC

« on: May 19, 2012, 09:44:48 PM »

OK..draw with CadStd...
export as .dxf file...
open .dxf file with LazyCam....all OK
...but when I post to Gcode...the Z axis comes out inverted....ie: cuts on the lead paths and not on the parts ! What am I doing wrong ??
Thanks...

General Mach Discussion / Re: How to set Mach3-config file for millimeter instead of inch

« on: January 27, 2012, 08:36:34 PM »

HI, (Newbie trying to convert K40 chinese laser using Lightobject 2 axis board and Mach3 or KCam)

I can't get machine ( in Mach3 ) to run in metric units....displays in inches and travels in inches !
I have read all the posts I can find, changed config to mm....dxf file loaded in mm ....but still reads and travels in inches !
What am I missing
Thanks..........
