A axis rotational issues

[Fastbass]

2 issues I am having, machine is a CNC router with an open builds black box x32 controller. 1st issue is when soft limits are enabled it will only rotate negative, trying to rotate positive alarms that it's up against soft limits, $133 was defaulted to 360 degrees, open builds staff said to set at 0 degrees... It made no change to the operation. 2nd issue is when running a tool path that calls for part to be indexed 180 degrees or any value off of zero, axis rotates continuous despite the command in g code giving it a specific value. Peter at open builds suggested I post here since we are at a loss at this moment. Thanks in advance for any and all assistance.

Post your settings please.

Your $133 setting is not 0: $133=36000.000 ; A-axis maximum travel, degrees

I tried at "0" same results

I tried at "0" same results

After setting $133 to 0 do you get $133=0 in a new settings report? If not it might be a sender issue or that you are running an old version of grblHAL.
BTW $376 should be set to 1.

If you are using Windows you may try ioSender to configure the controller. At least this works as it should for me, this with a version of the firmware I just made with the Web Builder.

$133 stays at 0, I will change $376 to 1 when I get home. Thanks for your help I will let you know.
