 ==== 12.12 PAVO Server - Error communicating with IFW ==== ==== 12.12 PAVO Server - Error communicating with IFW ====
 The following error message sometimes appears when starting the PAVO server: "Error communicating with IFW. Could not read from IFW. Is the filter wheel plugged in and on?" Most of the time, restarting the PAVO server will clear this error message and allow PAVO to communicate with the filter wheel. If restarting the server doesn’t help, then check that the cables going into the small, black IFW box on the PAVO table and into the back of the PAVO computer are plugged in securely. The following error message sometimes appears when starting the PAVO server: "Error communicating with IFW.
