    centroid controller y axis servo setup

    Hi
    I have a centroid controller (m-15) that I got on a used atrump 3vk knee mill. I finally have everything setup and ready to mill some parts, however the y axis only moves .5 inch for every programmed inch currrent setup is

    motor revs per = 10,000
    encoder counts per rev = 4000

    I am assuming I need to double the motor revs to 20,000, but do I leave the encoder counts the same? It seems weird that someone would go into the controller and mess up these setting, but perhaps that is why I got such a good deal on it. Anyones help-experience-advice appreciated
    Thanks
    Evan

    Evan,

    I would contact centroid, they have always been good to me when I needed some help. I am guessing that the BLU(base length unit) in the control is not accurate.
