I'm lost.
I thought that the touch-off feature was for setting the workpiece home 
position.
So I search for the side of my workpiece with one of these LED feelers 
("kantentaster" in Dutch, don't know the English term) and perform a 
touch-off with 5mm. I thought this should set my coordinate (X or Y) at 
-5, but i get real strange results.

After homing my machine, giving machine coordinates, how do I manually 
set the home coordinates of my workpiece to 0,0,0 ?

Currently I search the sides of my workpiece and do a G92 X -5 / G92 Y 
-5 but that's not really a good and solid way to work.

Regards,
