This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
06:17:02 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:17:02 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:17:02   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:17:02 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:17:03 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:17:03 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:17:03 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:17:03 Dome is MaxDome
06:17:03 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:17:03 Imager is ASCOM
06:17:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:17:03 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20221216@061639 UTC
06:17:03 Imager readout modes:
06:17:03   0 is Fast
06:17:03   1 is Normal
06:17:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:17:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:17:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:17:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:17:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:17:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:17:03 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:17:03 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:17:03 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
06:17:03 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used

06:18:02   297 catalog stars found
06:18:07 ** No matching stars found. Check your estimated center-point RA/Dec, and your image scaling and quality.

06:20:02 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
06:20:02 **Autoguiding failed.
