I have reconfigured X & Y servos- not completely sure/ seems as though it is backwards to other cnc vertical mills.
I now have the X homing out on the X- limit switch- moving to the left hand direction as the picture shows when homing.
X movement is now backwards to arrow keys at this point.
Y axis is homing out on the Y- limit switch- movement is coming at the operator at this point (arrow key move axis correctly).
On a typical CNC vertical mill (one with a moving table and moving saddle):
X+ movement moves the
tool to the
right, by moving the
table to the
left.
X- movement moves the tool to the left, by moving the table to the right.
Y+ movement moves the
tool away from the operator, by bringing the
saddle towards the operator.
Y- movement brings the tool towards the operator, by moving the saddle away from the operator.
Centroid typically prints the jog keys to show tool movement. Therefore the right-pointing arrow is labeled as the X+ jog key, and the upward-pointing arrow is labeled as the Y+ jog key. It is normal, correct, and expected that the table and saddle will move opposite the direction the arrow points.
Some controls (for example, a vintage Milltronics I worked on recently) print the jog buttons the other way around: that is, the X+ button points left and the Y+ button points down. This makes it easier for a novice to remember which way the moving part of the machine moves, but it makes the jog keys opposite the coordinate system that you write your programs in. We usually draw parts, on paper and in our CAD systems, with X+ to the right and Y+ up.
It sounds like you have both axes backwards (which will at least cut a valid part, albeit turned around 180 degrees) and you still have a reversal of the Y axis jog keys. You should send Ajax a Report from your system, so they can see what is up with your PLC program.
You should also go to the Windows "Folder Options" screen; select the "View" tab; and un-check the box for "Hide extensions for known file types". It is curious that Windows identifies your systest.out file as an "MS-DOS batch file". Is the file's real name systest.out.bat for some reason? Making the above change in Folder Options will show that, and will also ensure that Notepad does not name your CNC files "jobname.cnc.txt".
What happened when you asked Windows to delete systest.out?
