    Mach 3 travel distance HELP! Please.

    Would someone know how to manualy set the travel distance, since I have tried the auto Cal for X,Y,Z didn't work as it set the steps to 6400 and nothing moved.
    I move the distance 1" and the software says 9" How would I fix this??
    Currently it set to 1600/ 400/ 90
