Reverse Y axe
November 30, 2009 03:37AM

Hi,

Im'building my first repstrap:
mechanical: McWire
elettronics: 3G
firmware: 1.6 (preloaded from MakerBot)
host: replicatorG-10

All go right but the Y axe seems mirrored. So this little G-code:
G21 ;switch to metric
G1 X10 Y10 F200
X10
Y10
X-10
Y-10

Look like the motion is mirrored on both X and Y. If it was just the Y axis the figure would be flipped vertically.

just invert the x and y axis, I believe there is a option in the firmware.

In ReplicatorG, go to the "Machine>Onboard Preferences" menu option. You should be able to invert any axis there. When you're done, you'll want to reset your machine; when it restarts it will reverse the axis.
