5.9 Homing Procedure
During initial power up, the iCNC® XT may display a Start homing procedure dialog box. If you select Yes, the machine will automatically locate
the absolute zero home location. As a default, this is normally set at the bottom left corner of the cutting table, however this is selectable in the
set-up parameters. If you select No, the dialog box disappears and no movement is executed.
