Are you sure about that? I believe (from muscle memory more than anything else) that for Az the displayed Maz is actually the error, i.e. a reading of -1 means the mount is pointing a degree too far West, and that the South leg needs to be dragged further eastward.
In Alt (Mel) I'm not so sure, it may well be reversed there, which I'd attribute to a northern vs southern hemisphere software issue. I'm less certain on this one because I don't often have to adjust this.
