Positions, where is XY zero ?

[JulienD]

Hello,

I'm setting up my first board. I try to set the board parameters and I have several questions:

1- what are width and length used for? 

2- I suspect that width is X dimension and height is Y dimension. Right?

3- X/Y/Z are the coordinates of the 0 of the board but in which referential? What is the absolute 0?

4- I've screwed 2 rulers on the bed to place the board always at the same place (picture). Is there a way

to say : Hey, this is the place where the boards positions refers to?

5- what is "offsets" in "position" tab of a camera on a head?

Thanks

Julien
