I have done all the tests. On the machine coordinates test.the machine moved the correct distance. Using a demo from lazy cam the machine cut correctly. Any other g code it scales to large. Today I am going to reload mach3 on the machine pc. And try the tests again and try some project g code.

Hey!
I know this post is old but I was wondering if anyone can help me to figure out what I am doing wrong. I am using Aspire/Vcrave to generate some gcodes so I can machine it in mach3. for some reason the mach3 keeps up-scaling any gcode I try to load like by X10!
I have the mach3 to mm and the gcode is set to metric for sure. For some reason the mach3 reads millimeters as if the were centimeters, i.e if the gcode was 100 x 100 x 6 mm it show it as 100 x 100 x 6 cm!
At this point I am not sure how to deal with this issue.
I will be really thankful if anyone can provide help or a solution.
Thanks in advance!

Show the code or a sample thereof.
You think that's too expensive? You're not a Model Engineer are you? :D
