Tool Path

[jimmya]

I made a tool path using Vcarve Pro, when I run it on my PRS it seems as though every thing is backwards. The Y is reversed and the X is also. I've dried remaking the tool path on 2 computers, with the same results. I reinstall the Shopbot software, same thing happens. I need help!!! This little job has got to be ready in the morning.
Thanks for your help

Not sure but sounds like you have your V Carve set up with x and y in opposite direction/orientation from your machine. I'm Not in front of V carve at the moment but suggest you check orientation in art/program and see if they are reversed in settings.

I've run it on 2 computers, here is the Vcarve file.

Does your machine travel normally with the (K)eypad?

The only thing I see in your file is that you have chosen "Climb" cut instead of "Conventional".

You don't have a negative proportion in the fill-in sheet do you?

Key Pad works fine. Fill in Sheet?

Does the preview in V-Carve produce the expected result? Are you sure you have the correct post processor selected? If both of these are OK, then I would e-mail Vectric support directly. Tony and his staff are very good about solving problems in a very timely fashion, even on weekends. If it turns out that it is not a Vectric issue, then I would call ShopBot tech support. They too, are very good about problem solving, even on weekends. I'll be interested to know what the final solution is.

I reinstalled the SB software again and now it is running right. I don't know what was wrong.
