    I am starting to think that maybe there is a dodgey connection some where as i am unsure as to why this is happening. We have had the pendant apart to check everything is in tact in there and all is fine.
    Thank you for your advice!
    G17 is the XY plane G20 is for imperial and G21 is for metric.

    Are you sure that the drawing scale is in mm and not inches ?

    In the MDI type G1 X0 F200 then G1 X10 F200 Then check to see if X moved 10mm
