The Techno interface specifies which direction the machine travels in when homing.

CRITICAL NOTE: After changing the home direction for an axis, any Stored Offsets and Tool Stand Locations will need to be re-learned.

If the home direction is to be changed due to preference or because an axis is traveling in the wrong direction during home:

  • Click Setup
  • Click Advanced
  • Click Homing Params

You will receive a screen as such:

The options buttons next to + and - dictate the direction of home. To change direction, simply choose the button opposite of the one currently selected.

Typically, M1 is the Y axis, M2 is X, and M3 is Z. The motors are labeled from the ground up, M1 being the physically lowest motor.
