SUMMARY
When you setup a session in the session scheduler and the mount is OnStepX (but I think it's the same with OnStep) only the first target is captured and the following targets abort with an error.
What happens is that when Kstars sends the command to center the second (or third or fourth) target the mount refuses because is still in tracking mode and the session ends with an error.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. setup the scheduler to capture two or more targets
2. start the scheduler
3. wait for the first target to finish and the second to start

OBSERVED RESULT
The scheduler ends with error after the first target is captured.

EXPECTED RESULT
The scheduler should continue capturing all the targets.

This is an INDI issue and not an Ekos issue. You can increase the settlement time.
