10:43:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:43:32 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:43:32   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:43:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:43:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:43:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:43:33 User actions detected.
10:43:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:43:33 Dome is MaxDome
10:43:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:43:33 Imager is ASCOM
10:43:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:43:33 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230224@104153 UTC
10:43:33 Imager readout modes:
10:43:33   0 is Fast
10:43:33   1 is Normal
10:43:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:43:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:43:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:43:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:43:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:43:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:43:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:43:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:43:33 ==== Starting target HS1340+1524 ====
10:43:33 ACPS Observation HS1340+1524(1 of 1)
10:43:33   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3464, Plan HS1340+1524)
10:43:33   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:43:33 Pointing updates are enabled
10:43:33 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:43:33   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
10:43:35   (wait for slew to complete)

10:43:49   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:43:49   Focus change of -290 steps required
10:43:52   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:43:52   (using Fast readout mode)
10:43:52   (starting exposure)
10:44:17   (exposure complete)
10:44:19   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
10:44:20   Image finished
10:44:20   Plate-solve pointing image.
10:44:21   239 image stars found
10:44:21   113 catalog stars found
10:44:22   Solved! 45 stars matched.
10:44:22   Average residual is 0.34 arcsec.
10:44:22   Pointing error is 4.873 arcmin @ angle 96.78
10:44:22   True focal length is 3472.6 mm.
10:44:22   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
10:44:22   True image center (J2000): 13h 43m 43.5s   15° 08' 41.45"
10:44:22   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
10:44:22   [sync] pointing model updated
10:44:22   Re-slew to target.
10:44:22   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
10:44:24   (wait for slew to complete)
10:44:34   (slew complete)
10:44:34   Target is now centered.
10:44:34   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:44:34   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
10:44:34   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
10:44:34   Focus change of 290 steps required
10:44:37   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:44:51 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
10:45:05 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
10:45:06 **Autoguiding failed.
