              ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialist: J.Dembicky
User sequence was aborted with the following warning:
2023-04-11 06:28:07 OU03.Adam 17 agileExpose w debug="finishing file /export/images/Q2OU03/UT230411/j0822.0448.fits with size=561600"

I had the user restart the sequence and things seemed to be fine.
It aborted again a few minutes later and this time I reset the heartbeat to see if that fixes the issue.
User also reported the guider could not find a star after the aborted sequence.  I took control of the guider and when I selected find star it would report back no star found and the error "guider is running a previous command".  I had to restart the afocus nubs to get the guider back.
No other problems tonight.
