I found G21 in the .ini file and changed it to G20. Axis X,Y,Z and A now display in inches. But the dro part of the front panel shows axis A angles in +/- values while the white angle indicators in the preview screen show the correctly in degrees. My B axis is linear and its dro displayed in inches even when the G21 code was in the .ini file. Should it not have displayed in mm with the G21 code?

I test each axis individually on the bench with just one motor and encoder feedback going a Leadshine DCS810 and also feeding the encoder a.b and index signal to the appropriate quad decoder for routing to each axis pid function. The quad decoder inputs on X,Y,Z and B inputs will later be fed by the glass scales that are on those axis already and parameters adjusted as required. The machine this system is going on is not quite ready since it does not have all the required limit and home switches installed..

A,B and C can not be linear!!!!
This are the rotation axis around the linear axis.
If you need aditional linear axis you have to use U, V or W.

So this seems not to be gmoccapy specific.

Norbert I have lost my file to configure your 5 axis version of Gmocappy during my computer swamp. I have searched for hours trying to find a link to download the file with no success. If possible can you provide me with a link to where I can download a copy?

Can you follow?
If you have git installed, you may not need all steps.
All out of memory, I am not sure with the git checkout command, you can do that one also using git gui

Norbert the links you posted help me a lot. I'm impressed by gmocappy and its flexibility. On my initial install that I did several weeks back I did have a real long line of numbers running through part of the lower left side of the screen. When my new install is completed I will let you know if that line appears again.

The longer numbers are caused by a wrong ini entry, if yiu used a older version of stepconf.
Please see the official docu, under known problems.
