O-Inspect 322 - Base Alignment with Fixed Zoom

I purchased an O-Inspect 322 a little while ago and have seen a ramp in usage for the equipment. I am struggling with creating an inspection plan to measure parts only optically and basically in 2D. What I want to do is basically probe two edges of a part to make the planar rotation constraint and the X, Y origin--and then to have the measurement plan run at the same zoom level that I used to probe those edges.

When I try to make a Z-plane with a theoretical feature at any z-value, it will send the head to the max/min limit regardless of the value. I just basically want to do 2D inspection but can't seem to figure out how to keep the Z constrained where I want it to be. I cannot probe the surface of the part itself, since the appearance of it will apply a weird plane and align the CAD model incorrectly.

If all you are after are 2D optical measurements within a program I would suggest trying the following. 

For the Base Alignment leave the "Rotation in Space" feature empty thus forcing CALYPSO to assume the part is parallel with the machine X Y axis (glass). Use a 2D line to set the "Planer Rotation" and "X and Y Origins". Finally create 1 Auto Focus point  on an edge of the part to use as the "Z Origin".
