This may not be the right place to raise this!

People may remember I attempted to make a box type printer using Ormerod components and software. This worked but not very well due to the configuration of the x and y axes.

I have now reconfigured it to eliminate that problem but in so doing I have had to increase the size of the drive pulleys. This means that the ratio between stepper motor steps and the resulting linear motion has increased. There must be somewhere in the software that gives this ratio. Can I add a line to config to change this? Help would be most welcome. I amusing firmware 1.09 on my Ormerod

The steps/mm are set in the M92 command in config.g.
