**Imaging error: **Failed to start the exposure [MaxIm error]

[Clifford Kotnik]

I started getting this error about every 10 minutes last night. It seems to occur only with a filter change. I do not see anything in the ACP log indicating an error back from MDL. Attached is an ACP log from one such incident.

The tail end of the MDL for at the time of this failure looked like that pasted below.


I could use some help on this. I don't really see a hint of what is wrong.
