    Conquest 42, making progress

    OK, I found the reset for the hydraulic pump contactor.
    Now everything powers up without alarms.

    Now I'm into the confusing ZERO RETURN (HOME) sequence.
    Below is a pic of my control buttons for the axes.
    I do the x-, z- thing and then hold OT Release along with x+ then z+,
    But I have never seen the x home or z home lights come on.
    I'm also unclear on the function of the Zero Return button.

    I seem to be on the steep end of the learning curve!

    Hold the +X button while the Zero Return in enabled until the X axis goes to home. Repeat with the +Z button.
