Sorry, shorthand. -ve = negative, +ve = positive. Was using it to express direction.
i.e. 0 value to negative values (i.e. -ve) etc...

just draw it out and if it looks right you are on the right track. if the jog directions corresponds to spindle motion through the tables work envelop, you have it correct. where the home origin is is just the defining point of the machine reference from which all other settings are predicated on. so where ever your origin is the min/max travels are from that point to the opposite side of the cartesian coordinate system.

As a close out to the topic...(unless I find other issues).
PM728VT, X Y and Z axis.
X is now positive i.e 0 to 480, homing on left corner of table, and cutter moving to the right, table moving to left. Total distance 480mm.
Y is negative. 0 to negative. Homing on front of table. This sets home in the negative. With table cutting moving towards back (i.e. table moving to front)
Z is Negative 0 to negative number. Homing at top of Mill. Distance 317mm.
Working as expected. So basically unless homing at back for Y and bottom for Z, these numbers will reference negative unless there is another way to "set" zero as home at the other end of the soft limits.
Thanks for everyones input.

I think using words adds complexity from interpretation of explanation, Machine Coordinates for X0, Y0, Z0
Z0 = Head Fully Up
X0 = Table fully Right
Y0 = Table fully Forward
Axis travel direction for table and head:
Z+ = /\ Head moves up
X+ = < Table moves tot he left
Y+ = \/ Table moves towards the front
Z0 = Head Fully Up
X0 = Table fully Right
Y0 = Table fully Forward
Axis travel direction for table and head:
Z+ = /\ Head moves up
X+ = < Table moves tot he left
Y+ = \/ Table moves towards the front

Excellent! do you have a build log somewhere on social media?
