Hello All,
I have an issue that you may have the answer.
I am working to setup the A axis on my wood mill. I have the A axis motor steps to correctly turn 360 deg's. My A axis needs to run a 1000 inch per min and the X & Y run at 75 inch per min.
I can edit the gcode from:

( File created: Thursday November 23 2023 - 05:43 PM)
( for Mach4 from Vectric )
( Material Size)
( X= 2.000, Z= 0.600)
( Diameter = 1.2000 Inches)
( Y Values are wrapped around the X axis )
( Y Values are output as A )

How and where do I adjust the A axis to match the 75 IPM?
