I am using Lasercad to do some simple engraving. If I send it to the controller without flipping it horizontally it comes out backwards. I have flip everything horizontally before downloading in order for it to come out right. However, this messes up my starting point for the engrave. Any ideas how to fix?

There are ways to change the direction of your X-axis:
- in the software (system options/ manufacturer options /Datum) you probably have to change the key direction aswell
- in the controller same setting as above. STOP-SHIFT to enter that menu.
- hardware .. swap two wires from 1 coil from the motor (ie A- <> A+ or B- <> B+)

Double check the parameters setup and make sure that the "machine zero" & "page zero" matched the HOME location. Usually it is either Top Left or Top Right. Then, click on the menu bar there is an icon name "Position Relative", do the same and match the HOME
