issue with limit switch

I have been setting up my machine... all going well... but when I reversed my x-axis so that I got correct positive x-axis motion... if I trip either of the x-axis limit switches, it stops like it should, but then if I try and jog out of it with the limit still engaged... I get a motion fault on the x-axis... but nothing moves... but if I swap the positive x back... the limits work as they should...

whenever you switch directions on an axis you have to also switch the limit switches as well. you can do this in the limit switch input setup screen. I can send you a screenshot tomorrow I'm away from my computer right now.

Ok... I will try that... the reason i didn't do this is I had the switches wired backwards for the default direction anyway...
