There are hundreds of users out there with factory Sherline
configurations running on the old BDI install and who may
be interested in upgrading to EMC2. Sherline does not seem
to be interested in helping them upgrade to EMC2 and I am
not sure what special things were modified in the Sherline
In defense of John and many of the other long time EMC
supporters, it is easy to get frustrated answering questions
for people who seem to not be willing to try to help themselves.
Newbies in many forums often fail, or seem to fail, to read
any of the already available information.

I agree that the integrator must put some effort into understanding the machine
he/she is installing EMC into. I was the good cop this time and you were the

In general, if it is going backwards, change the sign of the scale

Assuming you are using steppers...
First you need to know how many threads per inch your lead screws are
for each axis. The manufacturer should be able to get you this info, or
perhaps Google. Each axis could be different.
Next you need to know how many steps per revolution for each
