Here's what I've got on the MACH3 system.  The probe must be within 3" of the 
surface.  The DRO for Z is then adjusted for the thickness of the touch plate.  
For Wood routing this has been more than adequate.

Write-up on this G-Code is here:

response = MsgBox( "Auto Zeroing, Put Ground Clip on Tool bit", 1 ) 
If IsSuchSignal (22) Then
  code "G31 Z-3 F20"
  While IsMoving()
  Wend
  Call SetDRO( 2, 0.0625 )
  code "G1 Z1"
  While IsMoving()
  Wend
  response = MsgBox( "Auto Zeroing Complete. Remove Ground Clip", 1 ) 
End If
