Go to Configure then Control.
Click on the Homing/Softlimits tab
Do you have any values in the Home Offset for x and y?

Not usual behavior at all as far as i know.
Go to Configure then Control
On the right side of the Defaults tab is a section Initialization Codes.
Put G53 in it to be in machine coordinates.

While in Screen Edit Mode click on the Reference all Axes button.
Under Properties on the left click the middle icon.
What is in the Left Up Script?

It would not call G54 it would have a move command.
I do not see it in the code.
Are you positive it is moving after a Reference All Home?

Make a copy of your Mach4Hobby folder in case you mess something up before editing the screen.
If it is moving to the G54 position after a Reference All Home it is in the function RefAllHome() in the Screen Load Script.
You will need to edit the Screen Load Script
Go to Operator then Edit Screen
Under the Screen Tree Manager click the top listed wx4
Under properties select the middle icon (Events)
Next to Screen Load Script click on the words to the right then the button with 3 dots
Find RefAllHome and make your edits.
After your edits go to Screen then Save Screen.
Go to Operator then Edit Screen to exit screen edit mode.

Just so I understand correctly.
You have it set up so 1 step is equal to 1"?

As far as I know there is no easy way.
They are totally different.
You will need someone to change it for you or do it yourself.
Here is a document if you want to do it yourself to help you get started.

If you want to do some Lua just make a button on your screen not a drop down.
Here is something to help you start in the Lua.

USB stinks for machine control.
Just because it worked fine in M3 does not mean anything.
M4 is much better at everything and will see things M3 did not.
You have something causing the spurious signal.
Bad connections?
Bad usb cable?
Noise in the control box having nothing to do with the cable to the probe?
something
