Chapter 21
21-6
Unless Cutter Compensation is active, when a program recover is
performed, the control automatically returns the program to the beginning
of the block that was interrupted. In the case of power failure, the control
will even reselect the program that was active prior to the interruption.

G40 (cutter compensation cancel) is active when power is turned on,
E-STOP is reset, when the control is reset, or when an M02 or M30
