Dither after exposure doesn't dither after last exposure in a target loop, then causes a PHDError before first exposure of a new target

[Ara Jerahian]

In a DSO Sequence, I have a “Dither after Exposures” trigger with value of 1 enabled for the instruction set, which is a loop of 3 exposures. The dither works fine after the first 2 exposures, but doesn’t happen after the 3rd exposure. My sequence then moves to another DSO Sequence (basically, another panel of a mosaid I am looping through) and stops guiding, slews, centers, and starts guiding again. At this point, before the first exposure of my new set of 3 exposures for this target, I get the following error:

“PHDError: Cannot initiate dither while guide is in progress CODE: 1”

I had the same error happening but couldn’t identify the cause, now that you point it out it makes sense since I also had two DSO containers within a parent container with dither trigger

Hey Nic, this isn’t happening for me with the latest #016 anymore. Can you confirm if it still happens for you or if it stopped or you as well?

[Ara Jerahian]

I take it back. This still happens in the latest 1.11 nightly. Please note, I don’t really want the dither to happen, the next instruction is not another exposure, but a slew to a new panel, or a “stop guiding” command for some reason. Also, it doesn’t seem to be causing an issue, just that PHD2 kicks the error back because a dither op is being sent to it when it’s not happy to receive it. I will lower the priority to Minor.

" Cannot initiate dither while guide is in progress CODE: 1" should not happen anymore with the latest nightly
