I can get my laser to frame but when I hit start it moves all the way to the left and I get an Alarm 3 error

LightBurn Software Questions
1

I am new to laser Cutting/Engraving and trying to get everything figured out. I have done a burn from the card that came with the laser and everything worked fine, but so far have not been able to get anything else to work. I created a sample that i wanted to try which included a basic image and Cut lines that i was able to design in Lightburn. When I click on the frame button everything seems to work great, then when I click on the start button the laser head moves all the way to the left and I get an Alarm 3 Error immediately.
ALARM:3

Reset while in motion. Grbl cannot guarantee position. Lost steps are likely. Re-homing is highly recommended.

Grbl 1.1f [‘$’ for help]

Try and use Ctrl-A to select everything to see if there is something off the work area causing the problem.

I don’t see anything, unless I am missing it

Disregard I started over with a different image and have been getting it to work since. Must have been something with my test image that was creating that. Thanks for your help in at least suggesting the possible problem was the size .

If you’re willing to share the image or the lbrn file I might be able to help.

I’ve found that using Ctrl A then Ctrl Shift A will zoom to all selected so the far flung art can be found.
