Original report (archived issue) by Chris Billington (Bitbucket: cbillington, GitHub: chrisjbillington).

It might sometimes be the desired behaviour to keep going if images weren't acquired, but I think the default should be to crash loudly.

Where transition_to_static has the prinline:

print('Acquisition not finished before transition_to_static. Aborting.')

after which it returns, it should instead raise an exception such that it will be re-raised in BLACS.
