Stock TLO on Nomad with CNCjs

Hi, I have just decided to try CNCjs and have installed the latest version 1.10.3, I have added @neilferreri macros for 3axis probe, initial and new tool bitsetter. the 3 axis macro is perfect but I have an issue with the bitsetter macros, fistly I not sure these are the correct macros fo a Nomad so sorry if thats the case. I am trying to set tool length using the stock sensor, I have edited the location bit every time the tool touches the snsor I get an Alarm 4 error and it locks the machine until I rehome it, any ideas where I am going wrong?

I think I may have been unclear about my issue so here goes again, this works perfectly

bur this throws an error

ok
feeder> G38.2 Z-80 F200
ALARM:4 (Probe fail)
ok

so I feel like an idiot, I missread the required peramiters and gave the macro the Z position of where the probe triggers and not a position above so it could probe, all working as it should.
