How to convert the imperial system into the metric system

dpslwk commented 11 months ago

Should be a simple as changing a few settings in you .ini

LINEAR_UNITS in TRAJ Should be mm

[TRAJ]
LINEAR_UNITS = mm

in [RS274NGC] RS274NGC_STARTUP_CODE there will be a G20 that's should be swapped to G21

INCREMENTS in Display should be changed as well something like below which is what I use

[DISPLAY]
INCREMENTS = JOG 5mm 1mm .5 .1 .05 .01 .005
