The "Test This Axis" function ignores home and limit switches, and WILL run out of travel if you try to jog too far.

What do you mean by "runs off the table"?

I'm little confused what you ask. If you use chain/sprocket then just enter the number of teeth into stepconf. #25 ... I don't understand.. Metric country here.
Do you have just sprocket on motor and chain drive to gantry?

[electric2u]

all so there are 9 teeth on the gear with a pitch of 1/4
