Licensed to Arne Henden
12:54:21 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
12:54:21 Custom image file path/names are in use
12:54:21   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
12:54:21 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:54:22 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:54:22 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:54:22 User actions detected.
12:54:22 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:54:22 Dome is MaxDome
12:54:22 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:54:22 Imager is ASCOM
12:54:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:54:22 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20221227@124523 UTC
12:54:22 Imager readout modes:
12:54:22   0 is Fast
12:54:22   1 is Normal
12:54:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:54:22 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:54:22 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:54:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:54:22 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:54:22 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:54:22 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:54:22 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
12:54:22 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
12:54:22 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
12:54:22 ==== Starting target IR_Com ====
12:54:22 ACPS Observation IR_Com(1 of 1)
12:54:22   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3087, Plan IR_Com)
12:54:22   (turning on sidereal tracking)

12:55:09   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
12:55:09   Focus change of -50 steps required
12:55:12   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
12:55:12   (using Fast readout mode)
12:55:12   (starting exposure)
12:55:34   (exposure complete)
12:55:36   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
12:55:38   Image finished
12:55:38   Plate-solve pointing image.
12:55:38   150 image stars found
12:55:38   151 catalog stars found
12:55:39   Solved! 53 stars matched.
12:55:39   Average residual is 0.36 arcsec.
12:55:39   Pointing error is 3.931 arcmin @ angle 92.14
12:55:39   True focal length is 3469.4 mm.
12:55:39   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89

12:55:39   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
12:55:39   [sync] pointing model updated
12:55:39   Re-slew to target.
12:55:39   Start slew to IR_Com...
12:55:40   (wait for slew to complete)
12:55:50   (slew complete)
12:55:50   Target is now centered.
12:55:50   (high cadence option, no web previews)
12:55:50   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
12:55:50   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
12:55:50   Focus change of 270 steps required
12:55:54   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
12:56:09 **No stars at all found in guider image
12:56:09 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
12:56:23 **No stars at all found in guider image
12:56:23 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
12:56:23 **Autoguiding failed.
