Yes! This solved my problem, I increased min_ferror from 0.01 to
0.25, and now everything works fine.

The interpreter still wakes up in mode G20, and I have to either
do G21 manually or have a G21 in the beginning of a program for
things to work right. Does anyone know if there is a way to make
EMC default to G21 when it starts up?

Now I will have to generate some G-code for testing... Are there
any standard tests that the group could recommend for testing
accuracy, suitable speed/feedrates etc ?

Also, I now have the axes set up like a right handed coordinate
system with +Z pointing down. I have noticed in some posts that
others have +Z pointing up.... what is more common ??
