08:25:42 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
08:25:42 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:25:42   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:25:42 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:25:43 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
08:25:43 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:25:43 User actions detected.
08:25:43 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:25:43 Dome is MaxDome
08:25:44 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
08:25:44 Imager is ASCOM
08:25:44 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:25:44 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220212@082250 UTC
08:25:44 Imager readout modes:
08:25:44   0 is Fast
08:25:44   1 is Normal
08:25:44 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:25:44 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
08:25:44 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
08:25:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:25:49 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
08:25:49 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
08:25:49 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:25:49 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
08:25:49 ACPS Observation U_Leo(1 of 1)
08:25:49   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver2706, Plan U_Leo)
08:25:49   (turning on sidereal tracking)
08:25:49 Pointing updates are enabled
08:25:49   Start slew to U_Leo...
08:25:51   (wait for slew to complete)

08:26:46   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
08:26:46   Focus change of -290 steps required

08:27:17   Image finished
08:27:18   Plate-solve pointing image.
08:27:21   263 image stars found
08:27:21   146 catalog stars found
08:27:22   Solved! 46 stars matched.
08:27:22   Average residual is 0.15 arcsec.
08:27:22   Pointing error is 0.652 arcmin @ angle 43.55
08:27:22   True focal length is 3462.9 mm.
08:27:22   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.45 V = 0.45
08:27:22   True image center (J2000): 10h 24m 05.7s   14° 00' 54.34"
08:27:22   Imager sky position angle is 182.8 deg.
08:27:23   [sync] pointing model updated
08:27:23   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
08:27:23   Target is now centered.
