After making changes in the Wizard...
It says to "be sure to close the Wizard and restart CNC12." By this I would assume that it means to close and restart the CNC12 application, only that doesn't work. Closing the application and opening it again, it asks that Reset be pressed. It sees that, but pressing Cycle Start to home does nothing. I have to power down the system and restart it for Cycle Start to perform the home. Is this normal or am I missing something?

Re: After making changes in the Wizard...
This is normal. If you just close the software, restart and reset, it retains the last known position/settings and you will not be warned that your machine is not homed. If your drives shut down during this restarting of CNC12, and for instance, your Z axis falls a bit, your machine home will not be accurate. In this case, you would use the "Reset Home" button to re-home the machine.
An exception to this that can be set in the wizard, is that you can force the need to re-home after an E-Stop.

Okay, thank you, I see why that's done.
