See this Comm Center thread by Peter Prendergast. The main problems were wioth the Astrometric Dome controller and a secondary oone with the SciTech telescope controller. However along the way Peter and Kevin found a way to jam up ACP (which I have confirmed here):
  1. Park scope in ACP
  2. Unpark in scope controller (ACP doesn't know about this)
  3. Now try to park again in ACP.
ACP will get stuck. This can be duplicated using the ASCOM Telescope Simulator.
