Re: inch's
It's displaying in millimeters. You can change the display to Imperial units (inches) by selecting Imperial from a pull-down menu on the Control page, or by issuing a G20 command from the MDI interface on the Control Page, or by putting a G20 in one of your GCode programs and running it.

Re: inch's
It sounds like the machine is trying to home to limit switches and is not finding the switch.
