Lx90 Meade train drive problem

Hi not sure if this is the right place to post. I recently purchased a meade Lx 90 I'm trying to train the drive. I centre on a terrestrial object press enter and it slews away however it then asks to slew back using the right arrow when the telescope has slewed to the right and therefore needs the left arrow to get back. I've tried both resetting the controller and callibrating the motors but its still going the wrong way. Is there some other setting i'm missing??

Gday Casso

Have you tried pressing the nominated keys yet ( whilst not looking in the EP ), to see which way it really goes????
Ie if you are using a diagonal, you will get a correct image vertically, but it will appear swapped left to right in the EP when it moves, which can be confusing.
