Error in the middle of a job...now what?

Creating an Advanced V Carve sign that is a 3.5 hr job. About half way into it, I get the prompt to turn off the router for a tool change. Then I get some kind of port read error and Carbide Motion loses connection to the machine. I have to restart the machine to re-establish a connection.

Is there a way I can skip to the tool change in the GCode and continue, or do I have to start all over?

Could you delete the toolpaths that have already cut, and then start from there?

Yeah, had to go through and delete about 45,000 lines of code and just start where the tool change left off. It was a pain, but got the project finished.

Check your motor/limit switch-connectors.
