Mach4 General Discussion / Re: Mach 4 and/or ESS has my Y AXIS running backward.

Thank you, Steve. It seems that its a very specific issue. After some G code tweaking, we discovered thatM4 is changing the Y direction at the outset of a file run. It holds true for old files that we've run many times before the new setup and new files that we created to see if there was a difference. For instance, the G0 line of code that normally would read G0 X -20.3583 Y 22.0912 Z0.2000 would cause the Y axis to run back into the home position. Conversely, adjusting the same line of code to G0 X -20.3583 Y -22.0912 Z0.2000 (note the Y change to -Y) made it run correctly I tried to tweak pin setting for some time last night but nothing made a difference. I can't help but believe that its some very minor tweak somewhere but its elusive.
