Meridian Flip caused guiding to stop?

I had exposures continuing until astro dawn but guiding stopped near or after the meridian flip @ 1:22am. Cables appeared to be intact with no connectors dislodged but at the time of retiring the scope for the day, I was not looking closely enough to attest to their being fully connected. ie, it IS POSSIBLE a connector was slightly ajar without me noticing it. Does the log indicate anything other than dislodged cable?

PHD2 lost its ability to communicate with the guide camera at 01:22:18, so looping stopped and your session manager app didn't do anything to try to restore order.  If you can run the camera effectively now with the scope in its parked position, then you probably have a cabling problem of some kind.
