Mach 3 lathe pendant, change X direction when jogging
« on: February 02, 2023, 09:38:43 AM »
Please bear with me, I'm very new to Mach3 and I am trying to figure out a CNC lathe I purchased several months ago. I am jogging the lathe with a VistaCNC P1A-S pendant. I would like the X axis to move in the positive direction (towards the user) when I turn the pendant wheel counter clockwise. I know that I can invert the X axis on Mach 3 in the Ports and Pins Setup or in the Homing/Limits configuration, but that's not what I want since my g code expects a positive X axis in the other direction. Is this something that can be done in Mach3 or is it something that can only be changed in the pendant firmware?
