Cannot move backwards #18

Hi,
I'm using two NRT100/M stages with controller BSC202 (1ch driver card is SCC001, hwtype = 21).
I'm able to move my stage in the forward direction but it doesn't respond to any backwards moving commands including go_home. I tried different sets of home parameters but none of them helped.
I was wondering if you might know what I've missed to get it work?
Thanks.

Go home is a specific command only available on certain models. Do you have that functionality by default on the LabView interface?

Thanks for the reply. I've solved this. The problem was that I didn't run the APT Config utility before I tried to control the stages in Python.

Thanks for the update. Anyhow, APT is being depricated by Thorlabs, in favor of Kinesis.
I suggest you merge to Kinesis with Instrumental package here: https://github.com/mabuchilab/Instrumental/
