Thanks for getting back to me right away. I've attached two screenshots. The first one 
is the output after running "start now -v" (everything seemed to work nicely there), the 
second output is after using odbedit to stop the run with "stop". Notice that the DAQ 
never stops because it gets stuck in between transitions (You can see the run status 
being "stopping run" with the cancel transition button).

Thanks.

Isaac
