Need help from the community

hello. I’m new to laser engraving. I bought just a cheap ginmitsu 2.5 w laser engraver to learn on. I am using Lightburn however I’m having an issue with my axis set up. every time I try to do something it says that my set up is messed up and tries to push way beyond the work area in the upper right-hand corner and when I do get it to the lower left corner to attempt to rehome it. it keeps telling me it is a negative value and isn’t working. what can I do

Tried this?

There are additional documentation steps you should probably read through:
