Busy 3D printing a small box to hold my interface board to the spindle and 
probe connector.   Then I'll do some more testing.

It appears to be fairly repeatable.   I haven't figured out how to set the Z 
zero to the top of the material.  I can click on the icon button and it goes 
down, finds it and then moves up.  But it's at a random Z value.  What I'd 
really like is that it detects the top, sets the Z axis to zero and then moves 
up the preprogrammed amount.  
In the same way the screen positions the probe above the 0 point for say X and 
Y but nothing else is changed.  One still has to go to the main screen and zero 
both X and Y.

Or else I'm using it wrong...  Probably...
