Looking at the PHD log, it looks like PHD lost the actual star, thought it found a different one but didn't and kept sending max guide pulses until it found an actual star then continued guiding from there.

One night PHD2 lost the guide star while I was at the scope but it was not cloudy or anything. It looked as if the cameras exposure setting got change as the picture was very dim with few guide stars and gave me the same max duration warning, after a few minutes of this it started working properly again. Maybe the same thing happened here, I am using a ZWO 120mm guide camera.
