Linuxcnc cutting 1/2 scale ? was created by DonnieT
Hi everyone. I'm new to the CNC world. Just a hobby for now. My machine was working fine until I moved it to a different shop. Now it is cutting All programs fine only at half scale. 4x2 piece becomes 2x1 . Have fat fingered something ? Thanks for any ideas.

Most probably the drives are set to a higher microstepping, so check that first.

Thanks. All I did was unplug, move everything and reconnect. It's got me stumped.

If the drives have microstep ratio DIP switches then just change the setting and move on...

Let the cause remain a mystery.
