Confused Why Sequence Halted Without Attempting Recovery

Greetings!

Here is the log of my sequence from last night. I was surprised to find this morning that no images were taken from my second target, however I did have recovery mode set. I see that the slew, plate solve, auto center took place at around [2016-08-19 01:33:58]. plate_solve_image.fit was saved.

This is followed by some communication with PHD2 where its status was found to be STOPPED (as it should be at this point)

Then at [2016-08-19 01:38:13] the telescope thread reports the solver frame is being aborted due to a time out. The auto center is aborted. The sequence thread now wants to go to the next event, which is a calibration event. The next event in the sequence is a series of dark frames.

I had everything checked to attempt recovery, and so I'm confused why SGP never tried to recover this event and instead immediately skipped to the next one.

Specifically, under Sequence Generator Options, Sequence Settings tab, I have checked the following:

Attempt to automatically recover the sequence
Attempt recovery every 10 min for 90 min

Sequence actions:
Capture calibration frames even if the sequence fails to complete

How do these two settings work together? Does having them both checked introduce a conflict? Shouldn't the recovery be attempted first before aborting all light frames and then checking for calibration frames in the sequence?

Thank you for your help with this.

Best Regards,
Ben
