02:56:18 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
02:56:18 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:56:18 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:56:20 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
02:56:20 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:56:20 User actions detected.
02:56:20 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:56:20 Dome is MaxDome
02:56:20 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
02:56:20 Imager is ASCOM
02:56:20 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:56:20 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220316@025555 UTC
02:56:20 Imager readout modes:
02:56:20   0 is Fast
02:56:20   1 is Normal
02:56:20 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:56:20 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:56:20 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
02:56:21 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:56:26 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
02:56:26 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
02:56:26 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:56:26 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:56:26 ACPS Observation BX_Pup(1 of 1)
02:56:26   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver2706, Plan BX_Pup)
02:56:26   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:56:26 Pointing updates are enabled
02:56:26   Start slew to BX_Pup...
02:56:27   (wait for slew to complete)
02:57:02   (slew complete)
02:57:02   Calling TargetStart user action.

02:57:02   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:57:02   Focus change of 20 steps required

02:57:22   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:57:24   Image finished
02:57:24   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:57:28   1356 image stars found
02:57:28   390 catalog stars found
02:57:30   Solved! 91 stars matched.
02:57:31   Average residual is 0.2 arcsec.
02:57:31   Pointing error is 2.326 arcmin @ angle 76.83
02:57:31   True focal length is 3467.3 mm.
02:57:31   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.45 V = 0.45
02:57:31   True image center (J2000): 07h 54m 25.5s   -24° 19' 04.18"
02:57:31   Imager sky position angle is 182.7 deg.
02:57:31   [sync] pointing model updated
02:57:31   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:57:31   Target is now centered.
