    Y values negative instead of positive

    Hi Scott, why are the Y values for tool 8, that are shown in the graphics window, negative instead of positive?

    Hi Wayne,

    By default the NCPlot machine configuration is set to recognize the M88 code as the code to enable Y axis mirror imaging. Your program has an M88 at the beginning of the code for tool 8. You can fix this by going into the machine configuration to the G/M codes page and changing the M code for the axis mirror imaging.

    Thanks,
    Scott
