      I am trying to flip the X axis of a 3D Potter SCARA printer.
      Currently it uses a left handed co-ordinate system. The printer is owned by my school but students new to 3D printing and digital fabrication find it confusing.
      I tried setting the proximal arms minimum angle to the X axis orientation I wanted but that also rotated the Y axis direction.
      Thanks in advance.
      Config file:
      ; 3D Potterbot Scara firmware Rev-1
      ; 1/11/2021
      ;
      ; Configuration file for Duet WiFi (firmware version 3.1.1)
