I have a Citizen B12 swiss lathe, I was setting it up today when I got an error 501 over travel : -A1

I am new to the swiss style machine, what axis is A1? and how do I clear this over travel alarm? I can move X, Y, And Z axis in the manual handle mode. So I am at a loss as to how to clear this alarm.
I can not open or closed my main collet because of the alarm. Is A1 axis opening and closing the main collet?

Any help is appreciated.
 
What kind of barfeeder do you have on it? On all my new CAV (Citizen made) bar feeders, A7 is the barfeeder Z axis. Never seen an A1 before. Then again, I've never seen a running B12, either.
