Sounds like you either are sharing the same pin number of the turrets home switch with the limits or that you have set the home switch for A to also be a limit for A.
Regarding the Homing, if you open the screen in Screen4 (or other screen editor programme) you could change the Home All button to a VB button. Save the screenset with a different name (so it wont get overwritten if you upgrade) then from View menu in Mach load the renamed screen. Then when in Mach operator menu then Edit VB Buttons, Home All should be flashing, click on it and put this in
DoButton( 24 )
DoButton( 22 )
DoButton( 25 )
That will home Z then X then A, if you want a different order then just switch them around.
What input are you using to monitor the Up/Down of the turret?
