Z axis has multiple values?

I have set up the printer to the best I can (for the moment), finally worked out the MIN and MAX positions of the 3 axis. I get -12.00 for X and 10.00 for Y.

I then did a calibration of the 3DTouch according to the wiki, and got a Z axis value of -1.80. So I then put the -1.8 and the other values ...

I have a i3 Pro C (dual extruders) with GT2560, and a BLTouch. I haven't attached the BLTouch yet, as I want the printer to produce an object before I start messing with the hardware and ...
