Hicon 7866 motor direction
« on: June 26, 2021, 06:20:27 PM »
I have a 7866 wired to X, Y, Y slave, and Z. Ill axis motors operate in the opposite direction than needed. Other than change wires on driver is there any other way to switch this in Mach 4 or the Hicon pluggin?

Well I’m posting this to possibly help others that may have this issue in the future. I have to give a shout out to Datulab Tech on YouTube. After watching many videos I ran accross his and when he was walking thru Mach 4 he showed that clicking on the actual word motor for whatever motor you want to configure in motors tab you can then change values and check the reverse box which solved my issue. If Mach 4 would have elaborated on that in their Mach 4 setup manual I would have not needed to do a lot of leg work and mental !?’br,.,%# to get my system going. Everything works awesome now.
