Hey i have gotten a new laser. a Monport 40w.

it cuts just fine when i sett up a test square, but if i try adding a picture or even just a circle i get this error.

ALARM:3

ive used lightburn on a different laser up until now and never had this error before.

Alarm 3 says the E-stop button was hit. I doubt you leaned on it while the machine was running. Does it stop in the same place every time or is the “on or near line” different each time? If it appears random, I would suspect a loose terminal connection on the E-stop button, or at the Controller board.
