Thanks for the report.
Yes PNCconf doesn't keep track of the data used for calculation of each axis.
So the data from one axis calculation will be used on the next.

I am in the middle of refactoring pncconf for 2.6 and have fixed it there, due
to your bug report.
When I'm finished I will try to remember to look again at 2.5
