Sorry I missed this guys.  You can change your home position in config. homing and limits to home negative but you need to be sure you have home switches to support this.

The Y moves and the X DRO moves but the Axis does not turn.

This proves it is not software or mechanical..........  you should start troubleshooting the wiring.

General Mach Discussion / Help Wanted in LA California area.

« on: April 07, 2013, 04:02:30 PM »

Someone has contacted me looking for someone in the Los Angeles California area to train others how to use Mach.  This would include loading and closing programs, referencing the machine, setting work zero, entering tool data, etc.  You need to be very comfortable using Mach and you don't have to know everything about Mach but must be willing to learn in order to answer questions.  In other words, if you don't know, you will find out and get back to them.  This is a paid gig.  I have no idea if this is a one time deal, occasional or repetitive.  This doesn't have to be formal and you will not have to issue test or manuals.  Maybe you could run through the process once and then let the trainee as you assist, answer questions and guide them.  You will need to help them get a firm understanding of the process and some confidence that they can do it.  I would think this could be done in a single 8 hour day with you, a working machine and a receptive trainee.  If your interested, send me a PM and I will pass it on.
