    Mach 3

    I just installed mach 3 on my new 3040D and x,y,z move wrong. Moves up instead of down and left instead of right and so on. I do not understand how to fix this so could somebody explain this to me. The manual tells me to go to page 10 and follow the steps, but page 10 has nothing to do with what is wrong.

    Thank you in advance,

    Config > Homing/Limits, and check the Reverse box to change direction.

    You need to configure the motor outputs.
