I am continually getting this error:
ALARM:3

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

On or near line 1:

Three possibilities:

1. Bad USB connection or cable.
2. Bad power supply or connector.
3. A safety interlock (fire, door, tilt, etc.) is intermittent.

On or near line 1:

Although that seems to happen very early in the G-Code program, the message is generated after the fault and the Troubleshooting suggestion are relevant:

The laser halted abruptly, sometimes due to another Alarm or Error, or, often, the computer losing connection to the machine.

Check the Console for error messages preceding that one, as they may indicate the true problem.
