Hi All
I have built a plasma table running on Centroid Acorn.
The machine homes to top left of the table so when Sheetcam creates the code the movements are the wrong way I want it to travel in the positive direction.
Can something be changed within Sheetcam or is it a case of reversing the motors in the Acorn software?
I have looked in Sheetcam but cannot find anything that looks like it would help.
Thanks in advance
The table homing corner is not relevant to sheetcam, that is a condition you setup in your controller via configuration settings of the controller.
Sheetcam calculates a toolpath relative to the origin (X0,Y0,Z0) of a Work Coordinate System (WCS). You define the origin in menu Options-‘Job options’.
You set the WCS (such as G54) in your pp or use the controller default WCS.
This is a good gcode reference that may help you.

Thanks for the prompt reply and the link I will take a look👍
