SLIP AND DRIVE CONNECTIONS FLIPPING AFTER ELBOW

We have a custom database that was set up long before i started.  when populating the drawing if we have straight duct then an elbow, after the elbow, the S&D connection flips incorrectly.  This does not happen with the out of the box data base.  I have been trying to find the setting that would control this and have been unsuccessful.  Does anyone know why this is happening and how to fix it?  I have attached a pdf and the dwg file.  note it doesn't matter if i insert an elbow or a straight piece after the elbow, the connections flip.  any help would be greatly appreciated!

In your database find that connector.  Go to the manufacturing tab.  What is the type set to?  Is it S&D Manual?  Set it to S&D Auto.
