CM behaviour for setting zero

When one sets the zeroes in CM… what is it doing behind the scenes? Is it setting up WCS? G54? Or just remembering the offset itself?

I realize it persists across the machine being turned off so I’m curious how CM does it.

Need to figure it out as I’ll be adding a laser soon, so I need to determine the easiest way to have my laser (offset from spindle) line up when running the laser file, but not affecting the WCS of the machine in the case of a hard power off.
