Hello guys. I'm hoping that you can help a newb out with another question/issue that I am having with my new machine. I have been working with mach3 for a while now and seem to have a handle on that.

I have since purchased an openbuild OX 1500 x 1500 machine and got it all put together. Below is the list of everything that I have set up.

OX 1500x1500 Machine
Nema 23 Motors
48vDC Power Supply
Panucatt Gradus M1 Pro with Bigfoot Controllers
GRBL 1.1
Universal G-Code Sender Controller software.
$h sends my machine to the top left corner and z all the way up with home switches.

My understanding with GRBL and typical CNC machining is that everything is working in the negative plane rather than positive. I typically use vectric to make signs and whatnot which puts me in the positive plane. I have even tried using the gcode that is attached since it was made for this machine to build a box for this machine. Below are my $$ settings as well. What I am having a tough time understanding and getting the machine to work is that whatever gcode I send I receive an "alarm 2" error. Which to me means that it is sending it to the positive plane which will not work with GRBL. I have tried resetting the working coordinates to 0 on all planes but I still receive the error. I don't understand how to set it to 0 at the corner of my material and it will actually run properly. Do I have to home then basically job my machine to the opposite max corner to start? That just seems inefficient, but maybe that's it. Please any help would be greatly appreciated. and let me know if there is anything further I should provide to help identify what I'm doing wrong.

$10 should be 1. $23 is the setting you must change, i forget what mine is, but I reversed the Y axis ( = 2)
