We had a similar issue, and the culprit in our case was the servo motor speed
1. Camera would start the search sequence, looking for targer.
2. First pan sweep wouldn't see it. Camera swings back to the left to start second sweep.
3. While the camera is sweeping back, the camera sees the target, but since it is in the middle of sweeping back to start the next scan, it loses lock on it and has to restart scanning.
Making some minor tweaks to the target tracking code fixed this for us.
It also helps to make sure the camera is calibrated correctly.
