    When I try to run one in inches it seems to run in mm instead of inches.

    My spindle is calibrated to move 25.4mm to get 1in of travel, so assume if I increased my numbers 25.4 times I would get what I want. Except I don't want to go through my files and convert them manually.

    Am I missing something to get files to run at a 1 on the display = 1in ???

    Thanks for your responses so far guys!
    Does the code have a G20 in it?
    You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
