Autofocus delay and equipment shut-down

Two separate issues here. Running Win 7 SP1 and SGP 2.4.1.

1 - The “auto-focus dialog auto-close delay” is set to zero but after auto-focus completes there is still a 30 second count down before the sequence starts.

2 - At the completion of a sequence, SGP wants to shut down the equipment for the night as it counts down for 30 seconds unless I hit DISMISS… Is there a way to eliminate this message so I can shut things down manually at my convenience?

Please send your SGF file

I don’t understand what good removing this dialog will do. Sounds like you want an option to run end of sequence options when a sequence is not running.

SGF attached Ken. Also is there a way to prevent the shutdown option
after each sequence is completed without having to DISMISS it each time?

Thanks,

Tom

Ken,

private mail follows regarding my posted question…

I thought there may be an option available to eliminate that. Being a
new user I am running test exposures to verify proper auto-focus
calibration and other functions. I do this by running a sequence it’s
complete, I start a new sequence with the same profile, in order to
retest parameters. Should I not run multiple sequences to do this? I am
probably not using the proper mechanism.

I would just prefer to shut down the equipment manually when I’m ready
at the end of the night, but it’s really not a huge deal to click DISMISS.
