ok so actually Z sets the diameter.
You need to set the Z touch off to the diameter of the pipe.

Hello.
You asked: if you jog Y to something like 20mm then jog A around 360 degrees, do you see a circle?
No, I only see a line along the Y axis.
I've added two screenshots, before and after the move, as well as the coordinates.
Regards, Dmitry.

Hello.
Sorry, I got caught up in routine and couldn’t answer right away.
I took several screenshots, they are in the archive.

This may be the problem I described in Axis.

Hello.
Scott, thank you very much. Your advice helped reflect the G-code and this is what happened.
I added the line GEOMETRY = A!XYZ to the INI file.
This is a screenshot after I load the G-code. The drawing is very large in relation to the size of the table.
Tell me, what could be the reason for this difference in scale?

I have no idea on the scale problem. I see it in AXIS and also QT Dragon.

From the documentation:
So in order to see the preview correctly you need to set your work offsets to zero and reload the gcode or switch to a different work offset that is set to zero and reload.This provision applies for liveplots only — G-code previews should be done with zero G5x, G92 offsets. This can be facilitated by setting offsets in programs only when task is running as indicated by #<_task> == 1. If nonzero offsets exist at startup due to persistence, offsets should be zeroed and preview reloaded.
