My issue is with the y axis. Starting at 0 i make a 20" move and I end up at a move of 20 1/8" of a move. When I move back 20" I am perfectly back on 0
Any of the experts here that have any advice? Scratching my head here.
Thank you all so much

Well, since it moves back to 0 I think the first think to check is your motor configuration file. The Steps Per Inch should be set to 4000. Also, are you using the imperial units in the Mach 3 settings?
