 +  [22:32:08] Corrected rotations, starting again 
 +  [23:00:45] Started AM Her capture 
 +  [23:01:03] dome for some reason started moving, partially blocking the target

 +  [02:04:39] Note: realVNC turned off unexpectedly, was able to reconnect after restarting it. 
 +  [02:27:38] Prematurely slewed to eta boo before capture was finished. Time left was 00000 but the pop up for it happened after we slewed. 
 +  [02:43:17] got the error "[Control-Terminal] ERROR: DDC-Unit took too long to respond. Please reconnect the DDC-Unit!" next line "[Control-Terminal] Disconnected from the DDC-Unit's Arduino and closed terminal." next line "[Control] ERROR: DDC-Unit's heartbeat wasn't received in time." 
 +  [02:43:46] going to restart drive controller 
 +  [02:53:34] We attempted to restart the GUI and reconnect but we got another error saying there was no response from the Arduino. 
 +  [02:53:59] Contacted Ian and Vincent in discord. 
 +  [03:12:02] Starting shutdown procedures as no response was received.
