The solution I am using is put G20 in RS274NGC_STARTUP_CODE of the
original ini file. Then each time I startup, I select inch in view.
Much easier than recomputing all the velocity and acceleration values.
On my other mill's I had always used Stepconf and selected Inches. This
is the first

You can just set the GUI to display inches and issue a G20 (?) command
and the machine will be, effectively, an imperial machine.
(I am not sure it is G20, as I very rare
This is not my only machine. I had adjusted the velocity and
acceleration values to the same range as those in my old machines that
were set up initially in inches. These values are 1/25 those of the
values in the mm file. I think I will generate a sample file using
Pncconf to double check.
When you change the machine units to inches, you need to change all the
velocity and accel parameters. They're just numbers, the unit is
assumed, and changing from mm to inches makes that number 25.4x slower
outright.
