Acorn lathe cw/CCW issues

[WabecoD600]

Hello.
For the lathe to operate I had to put a - in front of the spinde count.
Next, I cant change the tool setup to CCW in stead of CW. When operating, also need to use G2 instead of G3 and G41 instead of G42, suspect controll is setup up for tool post in the back, need it to be in the front. I cant change CW to CCW in the tool setup. Can you help?

pls post a fresh report.

You can setup the lathe in different ways, front and back are both supported.

Did you not set up part 0 in X and Z?

There are no values in G54.

Yes, i set 0 after this report was made. In looking for ways to see and change the relevant parameters..

Can you MDI M3 and M4 for CW CCW spindle rotation?
It should from your report, toggling CW CCW in the tool setup shoud be ok also

I can mdi m3 and m4, toggling cw/ccw in tool setup is locked.

This is strange, I can toggle with the spacebar..
