David,
Try reversing the sign of the INPUT_SCALE parameter in the AXIS_#
section of your .ini file.  I used this to reverse the direction of my
steppers i.e.

INPUT_SCALE = 12000 0 turns clockwise

INPUT_SCALE = -12000 0 should turn anti-clockwise

Hope this helps.
Andy

Subject: [Emc-users] Step Direction


Help please

I have successfully ungraded to EMC2 (Ubuntu) and things are running
smoothly with my Stepper motors using the standard set up files. I had
to add/adjusted the "step length" which now seems fine, but have changed
little else. 

My only problem is, the axis are going the wrong ways!

I've spent about a day playing with various settings "-invert" / "not"
and have come to the conclusion, I haven't a clue which setup file I
should be fiddling in. I've even resorted to reading the manual, but I'm
still none the wiser.

Can any tell me the best place add a "change of direction" command and
what it should look like, please ?

Thanks David
