Yes, EMC also saves the offset between home and the position you set with
a G92, so after homing, you will have the same coordinate system as before
you shut it down. This is great when referencing off the fixed chuck jaw or
a fixture left on the machine for several days running.

to an X coordinate of 2.345 units. If you want to set some position the machine
is currently sitting at to x=2.345 inches, you enter G92 X2.345, and EMC
