Settings for opposing steppers

Hi Sienci Crew,
This is a bit of a cross post but I’m looking for confirmation.

The machine I want to control with gSender is rack and pinion driven. The ganged Y axis steppers are opposed. One needs to turn CW while the other needs to turn CCW in order to move the gantry in the same direction. If I’ve understood the SLB tech manual correctly the required reversal can be achieved in the firmware by setting:

  • $3=6 (X: OFF, Y: ON, Z: ON ,A: OFF) Inverts the direction signals (active low).
  • $8=1 Inverts the direction signals for the second motor used for ganged axes. NOTE: This inversion will be applied in addition to the inversion from setting $3.

Do I have that correct?

Thanks

N
