Using Touch probe To Find Part Zero

Trying to find the part 0,0,0 on the mill. After following instructions in the manual on using the probe to find part Zero X,Y and Z, I noticed there is not option to save or accept the new values. Doe CNC 12 save these new values automatically upon cycle completion?

You have to setup tools in CNC 12 like in fusion by hand. With the next upcoming ProbeApp from swissi you can import fusion tool libs in CNC12. Uwe So,...
