My Axis Setup is Not Right

[Mr.Chips]

I am running Mach3, Movable gantry machine.

I have been using the wizard to cut rectangles and circles and wasn’t aware anything was not set up properly until I tried to run some text.

I just discovered that when I go to the Print Wizard the printing is coming out reversed. (Look at the zoomed in photo in the overall shot part of the "G" is hidden and it looks OK) And it is on the “X” axis, should it be on the “Y” axis? But it is not selected as reversed in the wizard.

In the one picture you see the letter “G” aligned on the X axis, however it is reversed, in the other photo you see the Mach screen and it is oriented correctly there. I have attached a note showing the directions the machine moves in when I use manual control.

The drawing is what I was expecting, or what would be normal. Or should it be on the "X" axis as it is in the photo only reversed? Yep that is me facing the CNC.

Thanks

Do you mean to reverse the stepper connections, or reverse the X and Y pin connections in "Ports and Pins"?

[Mr.Chips]

Oh, I think I know what you mean, I'll try that.
Thanks

Reversing the"Y" did the trick.

That problem solved now on the post the next one. One by one, drop by drop.

Thanks

No Worries, I did the same thing on mine
