I just upgraded grbl to 1.1f from 1.1e on my Eleksmaker A3. It was working ok on earlier grbl but now the Y axis is reversed. I chose lower left when I selected the machine but in the move window if I press right arrow it goes right as it should but pressing the up arrow makes it come towards me. If I do $$ in console this is what I get.
$0=10
$1=25
$2=0
$3=0
$4=0
$5=0
$6=0
$10=1
$11=0.010
$12=0.002
$13=0
$20=0
$21=0
$22=0
$23=0
$24=100.000
$25=1000.000
$26=250
$27=1.000
$30=255
$31=0
$32=1
$100=80.000
$101=80.000
$102=80.000
$110=4000.000
$111=4000.000
$112=6000.000
$120=800.000
$121=800.000
$122=5000.000
$130=400.000
$131=300.000
$132=200.000
ok
Assuming I need to change something here, how do I edit it please.
When you installed the new GRBL, you overwrote the settings. Short answer is you need to invert Y-axis by typing $3=2 in the console. See this page: https://github.com/gnea/grbl/wiki/Grbl-v1.1-Configuration#3–direction-port-invert-mask
In the future you should store the settings from $$ and change them back when installing. Note your $100 and $101 may also need changing if you find your laser doesn’t move the right distance any more or engravings are smaller/larger than they should be. Many of the other settings can cause problems like max acceleration, max speed, etc.
Thanks again for your help.
