[05:49:45] SESSION END

During a capture of S5 0716+714, PHD2 appears to have lost track of the targets it was guiding on and moved the current target off the camera view. There doesn't appear to be any clouds that would obscure the finder scope view and potentially mess up PHD2 guiding, so it is unclear why this happened.
