Romer Arm Zero point

I have not used our Romer ARM for some time and I am struggling just to start the alignment.
I noticed when I created the plane for the Z axis feature, the software is not compensating the stylus ball. 15mms. The zero point is not Zero when I tough the stylus to the part after aligning. Plus when I make a point on the plane on Z axis I am getting .26 reading instead of "0".
What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your reply Colin, So I need to take points with the probe ball in the same direction of the plane vertex and not using the side of the ball probe to take points. This can be hard to do if the plane is too close the the table. Looks like I need to move my part to get good points for that plane.

Thanks again:
