One other thing - the SX AO units have a nasty habit of jamming. (In my case - it happens about 50% of the time after running Calibrate AO.) If this happens, you might find that MaximDL freezes for about 5-10 seconds before giving you a vague CCD camera error (3) (or something similar).
At this point, I usually disconnect both cameras from MaximDL, start the SXV-AO Utility, connect to the AO unit, click on Recovery, wait about 5 secs, disconnect from the AO unit (quit the program, or press Select Com Port), reconnect the cameras in MaximDL, and continue with the imaging run.
Sooo frustrating - if it didn't do such a good job when it works, I would have given up (or returned it) long ago.
