Thanks for your reply

Config asks for a password. I type 000, Says Limited access.
Then I can see inches/metric, but not allowed to modify.

I have PRO, License activated.

How do I setup or request the Password?
checked all documentation, no reference to that password

Thanks

Disable it in the wizard at Preferences/CNC Control, first option top of the page.

be sure to change both "machine units" and "DRO display units" to Millimeters. shut down, reboot, re home out to be safe.

Once you get to the configuration screen, you actually change between inch and mm by hitting the spacebar. Change both as Keith said.
