    On my machine the Z axis homes and zeroes at the top of travel. Zeroing to the bottom means the home switch compensates for tool length, otherwise CRUNCH. With the tool height set you can go to a known zero position (relative to machine bed or workpiece).

    I did not write the button scripts, but may have modified them slightly. There is help on this on the Artsoft website.

    I would advise that before homing the X and Y, that you get the Z axis up and out of the way.
