Title: Wrong Coordinate Numbers
Post by: BRANDON43 on May 19, 2016, 05:24:51 AM

I have a CNC 3080 and using Mach3. Everything appears to be working fine, but the x and y coordinates are displaying incorrectly. I can move the y axis the entire length of the bed and the coordinate will increase or decrease (depending on the direction) a max of 1.2000.  ??? I have played with the steps with no luck. Is there a way to adjust the coordinate numbers to a different value?

Thanks

Brandon

On the Mach3 Settings page you will find the Axis Calibration utility which will enable you to set your Steps per Unit. Just follow the on-screen instructions.
Also check that you have Mach3 set-up for the units you intend to use (Metric or Imperial).
