What is a home position value?

Hello,

I’m new to laser engraving. I just purchased a Chinese laser engraver from China that arrived in one piece!

I have connected all cables and hoses and loaded software Ruida RDWORKS V8

Before I continue researching/discovering based on your experience what would you recommend I do? Safe some files, review if setup is correct? How would I know if setup of software is correct with my machine?

Can you please point me to some answers already posted in forum so I can read. Thank you for the help
