Image burning opposite of preview on screen

My image is burning mirrored of what is previewed on my screen. I can hit mirror horizontally and it engraves right however my preview is then backwards.

usually - this has to do with the origin set on Edit → Device settings

I am not familiar with your machine so i can advise but most mirror issues that are non mechanical (as in users building machine and flipping 1 phase on 1 motor) are based on the origin being incorrect in that setting

You need to confirm which corner of your machine is X0 Y0 and set it acordingly

P.S. Being a galvo, if i got it right, is possible theres MORE setting to tweak!

Yes it is a Galvo I went to edit, device settings and the box is not there .

Right!
Someone else for sure will have a hand
Galvos are outside my comfort zone, so don’t want to tell you something that’s wrong.

maybe @JohnJohn can lay a hand.

Yes Origin is not in device settings, Thank you !

For a galvo machine, you will see a screen like this. You’ll need to work with the toggles in Galvo1 and Galvo2 to get things working correctly. You may need to change which Galvo is the X axis, or may need to flip the Negate toggles.

When you created your Galvo profile, did you import the Markcfg7 file for your machine, as this should have set all of that for you as well as the tuning for your lens.


Thank you it worked. Had to check the Reverse Direction under the GALZO 2 box. I appreciate yours and everyones help !!!
