Thanks to everyone have contributed to this daily build with their test and report.

We have strengthened and made the detection of errors in sequence (especially for the camera shot error) more effective. Below is an example of interception of the generic sequence error with a further decision in case of camera shot error
In this send email block a resume of all the events code and info coming from the RoboTarget printed using the ##VAR- directive. This is the text received by email:
Looks great Leonardo and should help out no end with my friends somewhat troublesome camera, being able to specifically filter out exposure errors from more generic problems.
It would be nice if we could get that sorted out but at least with these extra ways to catch errors we should be able to split out the camera errors from more generic errors like passing cloud causing guide failure, which RoboTarget manages very well without any intervention.
