Help! Axis distance problems (solved)

Just trying to set up my machine and after homing i try to jog to set my rear screws, the machine only moves a quarter of the way down the axis. This is true for both the x & y axis. I have checked my dip switched and all are set properly. I all so go through the homing process.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can you please provide a copy of you printable settings file.

How does one go about creating that?

The masso says it moved 48+", but it only moved 12 in+/-

You would need to follow the instructions on the page I linked in my earlier response.
