This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
10:24:30 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:24:30 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:24:30   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:24:30 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:24:31 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:24:31 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:24:31 User actions detected.
10:24:31 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:24:31 Dome is MaxDome
10:24:32 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:24:32 Imager is ASCOM
10:24:32 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:24:32 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20230122@102020 UTC
10:24:32 Imager readout modes:
10:24:32   0 is Fast
10:24:32   1 is Normal
10:24:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:24:32 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:24:32 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:24:32 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:24:32 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:24:32 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:24:32 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:24:32 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:24:32 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:24:32 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
10:24:32 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
10:24:32 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
10:24:32   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3411, Plan GZ_Cnc)
10:24:32   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:24:32 Pointing updates are enabled
10:24:32 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:24:32   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
10:24:33   (wait for slew to complete)
10:24:49   (slew complete)
10:24:49   Calling TargetStart user action.
10:24:49     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=7678s GW=T HAz=8143s DWz=T WF=no]
10:24:49   Updating pointing...
10:24:49   Switching from R to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:24:49   Focus change of -270 steps required
10:24:53   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:24:53   (using Fast readout mode)
10:24:53   (starting exposure)
10:25:16   (exposure complete)
10:25:19   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
10:25:20   Image finished
10:25:20   Plate-solve pointing image.
10:25:20   247 image stars found
10:25:20   127 catalog stars found
10:25:21   Solved! 34 stars matched.
10:25:22   Average residual is 0.29 arcsec.
10:25:22   Pointing error is 8.313 arcmin @ angle 6.06
10:25:22   True focal length is 3470.5 mm.
10:25:22   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
10:25:22   True image center (J2000): 09h 15m 55.3s   09° 09' 04.02"
10:25:22   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
10:25:22   [sync] pointing model updated
10:25:22   Re-slew to target.
10:25:22   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
10:25:23   (wait for slew to complete)
10:25:33   (slew complete)
10:25:33   Target is now centered.
10:25:33   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:25:33   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
10:25:33   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
10:25:33   Focus change of 290 steps required
10:25:37   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:25:51 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
10:26:05 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
10:26:05 **Autoguiding failed.
