So I think I have things straightened out now but one problem.  When I home the machine My Y and A axis contacts home switches I think properly then the X axis contacts the switch.  The thing that seems wrong is then the A axis bumps the switch again?????????

Hello Gerry

Sorry about the double post didn't mean for that to happen.  I think I found a wire that was connected wrong.  The box is a cncrouterparts cpr500 older box with the stereo connectors thus the x-x+ connect into the same connectors.  It didn't seem to change where the work lined up?

   I don't think I changed any of the jog arrow key assignments as im not sure how to do that.  Is that what is needed for that problem? 

I unchecked the home to negative button and now the gantry wants to go to the front of machine to home?  When i stand at the front of the machine my home is on the right hand side and what I call the rear of the machine.

Should I send you pictures of my set up?

Hello

I changed the coordinates on my machine and the side that it homes to.  I now have my gantry set up as X and length as Y, Questions are as follows
1) Stand at front of machine and look at the gantry and router when I press the up arrow the gantry moves back to the homing end.
2) On the 1st page of mach3 when I go to the full table on display mode it shows my work off the table left and lower of the table
