Sounds like maybe your steps settings may be off. When you tell it to go 100mm what does the accual move measure?

It is most likely going to be something with you motion card, Mach3 is a printer port soft Ware. Your motion card is simulating a printer port. So I would investigate from that motion card, it sounds...
even D002 ? this one has to be set first, it might restrict the other settings
D002 Highest operation frequency 0.0 – 400.00Hz Restrict the highest frequency of the converter output
I remember having the entering 400 long back when I did mine, it is tricky getting the far left digits entered especially if there is a max number (hard-coded in the firmware that it won't let you go...
Have you tried this

And here or some YouTube videos
Might be different model, but setup screen is same

What's trick with the display is there is another digit you need to go left to inter the 4, so change the 5 to 0 and move left to put the 4.

Taffy Carl, the E0 is just your settings wrong. Most likely your spindle is ok. What voltage or you using to power up your CNC? My CNC is USA 115v, and also my spindle is a 115v

What controller software are you using?

Is it USB or parell printer plug? You can test spindle manually

Seems like most likely your setup in mm and your trying to run with inches
Look like you hit the jackpot, does the site where you got to CNC do they have their firmware where you can download.
Here is a YouTube video that might help you on the firmware side.

Do you have some pictures of your cnc? Mainly z. If it is this one, you may have to get one 3d printed to a longer length and get some longer looks like 20x20 extrusion.

If you want a dependable cnc card don't buy this company stuff, I have a NVUM sitting on the shelf now because no firmware updates to fix homing issues. I went to CNC4PC and bought the c11s and...
When you run your simulator in 360 does is flash red , also in mach post scrip you may need to change some settings. When I get home I'll post my mach3 script settings

You can get it close but your RPM will never be exact. in mach3 I will post my setting when I get home from work ok.

I meant the https://www.cnczone.com/forums/chinese-machines/320698-cnc-4.html, that has a lot of help for your VFD

Share your cnc and some pictures so we can help you better.
With power off does the x axis motor turn freely. Also would help if you could give more info on your setup.
On Mach3 does is show in the message spindle speed bump down? Or some message the spindle bumped to low speed.

Go to the display on Mach3 where it let's you chain speed and raise the limit. Not the home screen,

E0 means you messed up a setting in your vfd. Check your settings you changed As for mach it will do that with the spindle when it does not like you settings. You can force it to run faster by typing...
