... I know this effect, it happens when the machine is not homed. When you jog in the unhomed state, the continuous jogging stops after travelling the maximum distance as given by the min/max limits in the ini file. Say, you have your axis (joint, actually) set to minimum 0mm and maximum 300mm, then jogging will stop after travelling 300mm in one run. You can then press the key again to get some new 300mm of travel. If your scale is incorrect, this can easily generate the effect you described, as the machine then "thinks" that it's travelled the whole distance, while the physical distance may be much shorter.
