Hi, I recently added a rotary table as axis A, and it was remarkably simple to get the actual node up and running, but for some reason I'm unable to get Axis to display in degrees rather than inches. I've tried several examples from various threads as well as the recommended settings in the EMC documentation, but there must be something I'm missing. Here is the .ini file:
