So it was still partly responsive, just the jogging was completely dead, no matter if using the screen, the hardware jog buttons or the wireless handwheel. After restart of the PC program everything was normal again.
FWIW, the g-code program was pretty long, maybe around 100k lines. This is the first time I used the machine since last November because I moved. The software is latest version. Oh...and I switched from an old laptop to a brand new integral desktop (both with latest Win10).
