This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
10:56:13 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:56:13 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:56:13   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:56:13 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:56:15 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:56:15 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:56:15 User actions detected.
10:56:15 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:56:15 Dome is MaxDome
10:56:15 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:56:15 Imager is ASCOM
10:56:15 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:56:15 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20230122@105329 UTC
10:56:15 Imager readout modes:
10:56:15   0 is Fast
10:56:15   1 is Normal
10:56:15 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:56:15 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:56:15 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:56:15 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:56:15 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:56:15 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:56:15 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:56:15 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:56:15 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:56:15 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
10:56:15 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
10:56:15 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
10:56:15   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_MZK_AUTO_ver2706, Plan GZ_Cnc)
10:56:15   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:56:15 Pointing updates are enabled
10:56:15 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:56:15   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
10:56:17   (wait for slew to complete)
10:56:47   (slew complete)
10:56:47   Calling TargetStart user action.
10:56:47     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=9601s GW=T HAz=10066s DWz=T WF=no]
10:56:47   Updating pointing...
10:56:47   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:56:47   No focus change required
10:56:47   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:56:47   (using Fast readout mode)
10:56:47   (starting exposure)
10:57:08   (exposure complete)
10:57:10   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
10:57:11   Image finished
10:57:11   Plate-solve pointing image.
10:57:11   270 image stars found
10:57:11   127 catalog stars found
10:57:13   Solved! 46 stars matched.
10:57:13   Average residual is 0.23 arcsec.
10:57:13   Pointing error is 7.810 arcmin @ angle 1.83
10:57:13   True focal length is 3465.4 mm.
10:57:13   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
10:57:13   True image center (J2000): 09h 15m 52.7s   09° 08' 36.35"
10:57:13   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
10:57:13   [sync] pointing model updated
10:57:13   Re-slew to target.
10:57:13   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
10:57:14   (wait for slew to complete)
10:57:24   (slew complete)
10:57:24   Target is now centered.
10:57:24   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:57:24   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
10:57:24   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
10:57:24   Focus change of 290 steps required
10:57:28   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:57:42 **No stars at all found in guider image
10:57:42 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
10:57:56 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
10:57:56 **Autoguiding failed.
