 ```
+This happens more likely after CTRL C of a scan. To recover from this more reliably, perform the an acquisition in burst mode with 100 frames, little exposure until no error message is raised after. This can be up to 3 times from former experience.
+``` bash
+scans.acquire(exp_time=0.02, frames_per_trigger=100, readout_time= 3e-3)
+```
+Afterwards, you should be good to continue with 2D gridscans.
