EMC with steppers

Ok, trying to make the motors move the correct number of turns per
inch.

It's a Sherline, 20 turns per inch, 1600 steps per turn (8:1 microstepping).
So 32,000 steps per inch.


With this setting:
INPUT_SCALE = 8000 0

It runs, but everything I make is 1/4 scale.

But when I change:
INPUT_SCALE = 32000 0

EMC crashes the system on startup!
