This is ACP version 8.3 (build 1, Release 8.3)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:53:41 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
02:53:41 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:53:41 User actions detected.
02:53:41 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:53:41 Dome is MaxDome
02:53:42 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
02:53:42 Imager is ASCOM
02:53:42 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:53:42 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220407@021748 UTC
02:53:42 Imager readout modes:
02:53:42   0 is Fast
02:53:42   1 is Normal
02:53:42 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:53:42 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:53:42 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
02:53:42 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:53:47 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
02:53:47 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
02:53:47 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:53:47 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:53:47 ReadLine: Filter to use:
02:53:55 -> 12 "SR"
02:53:55 Autofocus through SR
02:53:57   Search 15 deg-square area for possible stars
02:53:59   Looking for stars between mags 9 and 10
02:54:10   Found mag 9.0 star, GSC 1403-0682; nothing within 347 arcsec.
02:54:11   Star J2000 coordinates RA=09:30:20 Dec=15° 27' 21"
02:54:11   Using star at mag 9.0. Slew to star.
02:54:11   Start slew to AutoFocus...
02:54:12   (wait for slew to complete)
02:54:22   (slew complete)
02:54:22   Updating pointing...
02:54:22   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 2)
02:54:22   (using Fast readout mode)
02:54:22   (starting [RBI] + exposure)
02:54:37   (exposure complete)
02:54:39   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:54:41   Image finished
02:54:41   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:54:45   547 image stars found
02:54:45   191 catalog stars found
02:54:46 ** Failed to solve plate, possibly due to input plate scale being too far off.
02:54:46   Start slew to offset...
02:54:47   (wait for slew to complete)
02:54:57   (slew complete)
02:54:57   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 2)
02:54:57   (using Fast readout mode)
02:54:57   (starting [RBI] + exposure)
02:55:11   (exposure complete)

02:55:16   Image finished
02:55:16   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:55:20   231 image stars found
02:55:20   163 catalog stars found
02:55:38   Solved! 36 stars matched.
02:55:38   Average residual is 0.18 arcsec.
02:55:38   Pointing error is 0.843 arcmin @ angle 287.40
02:55:38   True focal length is 3469.0 mm.
02:55:38   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.45 V = 0.45
02:55:38   True image center (J2000): 09h 30m 16.8s   16° 39' 13.86"
02:55:38   Imager sky position angle is 182.8 deg.
02:55:38   [sync] pointing model updated
02:55:38   Re-slew to target.
02:55:38   Start slew to AutoFocus...
02:55:40   (wait for slew to complete)
02:55:50   (slew complete)
02:55:50   Target is now centered.
02:55:50   (AF will use Fast readout mode)
02:55:50   Starting Autofocus...
02:58:56   FocusMax auto-focus successful!
02:58:56     HFD = 9.82
02:58:56     Focus position = 3536
02:58:56   Slewing back to original position...
02:58:56   Start slew to AF return...
02:59:00   (wait for slew to complete)
02:59:10   (slew complete)
02:59:10   Autofocus finished.
