Licensed to Arne Henden
09:29:05 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
09:29:05 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:29:05   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:29:05 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:29:06 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:29:06 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:29:06 User actions detected.
09:29:06 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:29:06 Dome is MaxDome
09:29:06 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:29:06 Imager is ASCOM
09:29:06 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:29:06 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20230207@092831 UTC
09:29:06 Imager readout modes:
09:29:06   0 is Fast
09:29:06   1 is Normal
09:29:06 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:29:06 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:29:06 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:29:06 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:29:06 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:29:06 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:29:06 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:29:06 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:29:06 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
09:29:06 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
09:29:06   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3464, Plan KN_Lyn)
09:29:06   (turning on sidereal tracking)
09:29:06 Pointing updates are enabled
09:29:06 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
09:29:06   (wait for slew to complete)
09:29:11   (slew complete)
09:29:11   Start slew to KN_Lyn...

09:29:38   Updating pointing...
09:29:38   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
09:29:38   Focus change of -320 steps required
09:29:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
09:29:42   (using Fast readout mode)
09:29:42   (starting exposure)
09:30:08   (exposure complete)
09:30:10   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
09:30:11   Image finished
09:30:11   Plate-solve pointing image.
09:30:12   248 image stars found
09:30:13   252 catalog stars found
09:30:14   Solved! 95 stars matched.
09:30:14   Average residual is 0.3 arcsec.
09:30:14   Pointing error is 1.318 arcmin @ angle 159.10
09:30:14   True focal length is 3467.1 mm.
09:30:14   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
09:30:14   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 39.2s   47° 49' 28.60"
09:30:14   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
09:30:14   [sync] pointing model updated
09:30:14   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
09:30:14   Target is now centered.
09:30:14   (high cadence option, no web previews)
09:30:14   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
09:30:14   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
09:30:14   Focus change of 50 steps required
09:30:16   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
09:30:26   (guide star SNR=1.7 X=626 Y=602)
09:30:28   (first exposure estimate 8.58 sec)
09:30:39 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
09:30:40 **Autoguiding failed.
