I had mine do this to me once. I did several things and I don’t know which one was the actual fix.

I toggled the on-screen e-stop a couple of times.  
I toggled the physical e-stop a couple of times.  
I restarted using the restart button.  
I restarted using the shutdown button.

It started working after the last one, but one of the other things may have helped.

Good luck!

Nope. Unconditioned.

Did your screen look something like this?

Mine was 1.0.9 when it did it, so I’m assuming not firmware related. It seems like it could be an issue with the motor controllers not starting up as expected. I’d reach out to [support@onefinitycnc.com](mailto:support@onefinitycnc.com).

Tagging @OnefinityCNC here just for visibility.

The last thing I would try is the standard IT method.

Do a full shutdown, power off the switch, hit the physical e-stop, unplug the controller and wait 10 minutes or so. Then do the reverse and boot-up.

That theoretically allows all residual power time to discharge and hopefully would resolve the bug.

Godspeed and good luck!

Try clicking the soft e-stop on the screen. That should ‘reset’ it.
