    Hello all. I run the openbuilds control software on a new x32 black box controller. Any time I try to run a longer program, it randomly triggers an " alarm 3 for: reset while in motion. GRBL cannot guarantee position. Lost steps likely. Re-Homing is highly recommended [undefined]." The machine immediately stops in place. If I hit reset alarm and then start job, it goes all the way to the beginning. It will not continue from the stopped point, Today this happened after 1 1/2 hours and over 35K lines of gcode into a project. There is still over 100k lines of code left. I would rather not have to start over. Is there a way to start the machine from a specific line? Because I can't figure out how and can't find anything specific to openbuilds control software. This happens frequently, but not all the time, very random. Machine was homed before starting job. Any help would be greatly appreciated. TIA
