11:45:02 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
11:45:02 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:45:02   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
11:45:02 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:45:03 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
11:45:03 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:45:03 User actions detected.
11:45:03 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:45:03 Dome is MaxDome
11:45:04 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
11:45:04 Imager is ASCOM
11:45:04 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:45:04 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220325@113724 UTC
11:45:04 Imager readout modes:
11:45:04   0 is Fast
11:45:04   1 is Normal
11:45:04 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:45:04 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
11:45:04 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
11:45:04 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:45:09 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
11:45:09 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
11:45:09 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:45:09 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:45:09 ACPS Observation MN84(1 of 1)
11:45:09   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver2706, Plan MN84)
11:45:09   (turning on sidereal tracking)
11:45:09 Pointing updates are enabled
11:45:09   Start slew to MN84...
11:45:11   (wait for slew to complete)
11:45:26   (slew complete)
11:45:26   Calling TargetStart user action.

11:45:26   Updating pointing...
11:45:26   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
11:45:26   Focus change of 20 steps required
11:45:30   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 2)
11:45:30   (using Fast readout mode)
11:45:30   (starting [RBI] + exposure)
11:45:44   (exposure complete)
11:45:46   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
11:45:48   Image finished
11:45:49   Plate-solve pointing image.
11:45:53   3619 image stars found
11:45:53   216 catalog stars found
11:45:55   Solved! 74 stars matched.
11:45:55   Average residual is 0.14 arcsec.
11:45:55   Pointing error is 0.251 arcmin @ angle 71.81
11:45:55   True focal length is 3468.0 mm.
11:45:55   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.45 V = 0.45
11:45:55   True image center (J2000): 18h 41m 30.6s   -05° 15' 35.99"
11:45:55   Imager sky position angle is 183.0 deg.
11:45:55   [sync] pointing model updated
11:45:55   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
11:45:55   Target is now centered.
11:45:55   (high cadence option, no web previews)
11:45:55   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
11:45:55   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
11:45:55   Focus change of 290 steps required
11:46:05   (take guider image at initial interval 10 sec)
11:46:19   (guide star SNR=9.5 X=88 Y=364)
11:46:19   (first exposure estimate 3.15 sec)
11:46:25   (guide star SNR=4.0 X=86 Y=363)
11:46:25   (final exposure for guiding 2.36 sec)
11:46:41   (guide star SNR=3.5 X=85 Y=361)
11:47:00 **Guider waited for 11.8 sec and never got a measurement
11:47:01   (take guider image at initial interval 2.36 sec)
11:47:06   (guide star SNR=2.0 X=302 Y=479)
11:47:06   (first exposure estimate 3.62 sec)
11:47:12 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
11:47:12 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
11:47:12 **Autoguiding failed.
