# Auto-Reconnect

If the Controller loses connection to the machine for a reason other than the operator disconnecting it, the software can attempt to reconnect automatically.

## Configuration

The auto-reconnection settings are found in **Settings** <img src="https://3821062708-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FutyTkVS5yYIA5lOhHRPF%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-6c2616e8c31b3447e06f24389d17c11a921be1b1%2Fimage%20(18).png?alt=media" alt="" data-size="line">, in the **Controller** section:
