you can go into pinouts config and check "low" and it'll reverse direction. I've only started using it yesterday, so certainly not an expert, but it worked for me yesterday when I had to do it.
Home made setup. Just starting to get it working.
If the z axis is at 0,
when I send
g01 z5
z travels down instead of up.
I am not keen to plunge into the cabling and electronics.
Is there a quick way to reverse the z axis direction in Mach3?
TIA
Jim

That fixed it. Thanks
Under Homing/Limits, check the "reverse" box.
