Urk. Scott, this sounds like you're forgetting to untimeout() commands
when they complete.
Folks; we've been trying to track down a problem with these controllers
where they seem to mysteriously stop responding after a while. I think
you're running into a problem with some code that Scott added to try to
track this down.
Scott - if you have some time, try removing the per-command timeout and
just save time_second into the command structure, and then in a timeout
routine running every (eg) 10 seconds, bitch about commands that have
been on the busy queue for more than 30 seconds...
If you don't have any time to work on this, let me know and I'll do it.
Joe, Geoff; if you have any particular time constraints, let me know and
I'll try to meet them.
Regards,
Mike
