Z axis torch initially going up instead of down when clicking cycle start

Ok so I got it fixed by finding some settings in my notes that worked. So basically I entered these settings to the Z axis.
 
Now the torch still goes up initially but it doesnt hit the limit and it cuts just fine.
 
Im not entirely sure how these changes fixed my machine.

If you want, you can post a backup of your config here, and I'll take a look at.

Your Z axis limit switch is at the top of travel right?

Ok much appreciated here is my current hal and ini files 
   
And yes my z axis home/limit is at the top of travel.
