    Use Zero Return Single axis.

    Do not push Auto Restart when you power up, just Reset then Zero Return, A or B then Singl Axis. Home all your axes individually this way.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.

    You may also need to use the "Jog without Zero return" setting 53 to ensure you do not have a collision. But be careful that you do not over travel an axis - you could break something.
