How do set home position, running turbo cad/cam

I'm in the final stages of my scratch built CNC and starting to look into the software to run my machine. I have a full copy of Turbo CAD/CAM 11 and after going through the CAM setup I noticed there it no way to detect the limit switches or to jog the machine to a home position. I used the Hobbycnc driver board and their 305oz stepper motors. Although there are inputs for limit switches, it said the inputs are for the software only. I've read all the threads on numerous groups and no one seams to mention about manual moving the machine. Please help, I'm so close and if I don;t get the CNC running, the wife said she was going to burn the wooden monster in the garage.
