I took a look for Alarm 11 on the GRBL docs.

Might you mean Error 11?

Please screenshot the error in the Console window. Take-a-screenshot.org

Error 11 can be caused by incorrectly enabling ‘GCode Clustering’ in Machine Settings when the engraver is not prepared for the modified GCode.

You can check this in LightBurn by selecting Edit then Device Settings.
