CCDAP 3.41.5, TheSky 6.0.0.55, MaxIM 4.60,
FocusMax version 3.03.0029.

I did not estimate the run length correctly,
so the sequence extended to dawn. For some reason, the Dawn abort did not occur. I must have overlooked a setting, as this is the first time this has happened. Cannot figure this out, have read and re-read log and checked settings. ?Suggestions?

Log attached. Thanks. Morgan

Hi Morgan,

The dawn abort happens at the start of the exposure sequence. Since the hunt for the guide star took so long, it went past the dawn abort.

I'll address this in the next version.
