With Freqmod you change the sign on the input and output scale to reverse
the direction the motor moves. On steppermod you only have to change the
input scale. If I remember correctly it is jogging _polarity that changes
the direction the numbers move in relation to the jog button you push.

I am not sure what enable polarity is suppose to do...
