Hi

Now I've finally assembled my profiler and test drove it for the first time.
But when I draw a rectangle 50x50mm in colidrive it moves 80x80mm.
Did I assembly the profiler wrong or should I calibrate the software?

Thanks

Hi ? (don''t know your name, sorry),

50 or 8o mm is a VERY BIG difference.

Cannot have something to do with calibration i.m.o. (in fact not necessary).

Probably you should attach here your cbr file for a check ?
And the DXF too.
