Bending moment diagrams

Bending moment diagrams

I am trying to find out why RSA produces the bending moment diagram for a simply supported beam with a UDL on the begative side of the graph, as seen in the attachment. 

 

Based on my calculations, the bedning moment diagram should be on the positive side of the diagram.

 

Is there an elementary setting for sign convention I am missing?
