I set up an .axisrc file to enable the back tool lathe function. I zero my machine in the upper left. -Z is to the left of that so my head moves from 0 to -6.9 (or so). -X is downward, so I can move from 0 to -2.1 (or so). Even though I have no positive values of X or Z, the positive X and Z directions correspond to what is shown on the web page here: http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?BackToolLathe <http://wiki.linuxcnc.org/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?BackToolLathe> ( +X up, and +Z to the right). But, while the left/right arrow keys move in Z as they should, the Up/Down arrow keys move X in the opposite directions as one would expect (up key moves down, down key moves up).
Do I need to remap keys or do I have some other parameter set incorrectly? -Tom ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Monitor 25 network devices or servers for free with OpManager!
