Well, if I understand Your correctly, You are suggesting manual touch-off
procedure. What I meant something that LinuxCNC would do on its own, just
like usual homing - just press the button.

With manual touch off also jogging into limit switches would do the trick.
One could wire both limit switches in series and link to motion.probe-input
and then do probing move along each axis. Creating vcp button to do this
for each axis is simple.
