09:20:25 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
09:20:25 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:20:25   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:20:25 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:20:26 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:20:26 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:20:26 User actions detected.
09:20:26 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:20:26 Dome is MaxDome
09:20:26 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:20:26 Imager is ASCOM
09:20:26 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:20:26 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230228@091635 UTC
09:20:26 Imager readout modes:
09:20:26   0 is Fast
09:20:26   1 is Normal
09:20:26 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:20:26 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:20:26 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:20:26 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:20:26 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:20:26 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:20:26 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:20:26 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:20:26 ==== Starting target IR_Com ====
09:20:26 ACPS Observation IR_Com(1 of 1)
09:20:26   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3464, Plan IR_Com)
09:20:26   (turning on sidereal tracking)
09:20:26 Pointing updates are enabled
09:20:26 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0

09:21:18   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
09:21:18   Focus change of -290 steps required
09:21:22   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
09:21:22   (using Fast readout mode)
09:21:22   (starting exposure)
09:21:47   (exposure complete)
09:21:49   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
09:21:50   Image finished
09:21:50   Plate-solve pointing image.
09:21:51   245 image stars found
09:21:51   151 catalog stars found
09:21:52   Solved! 50 stars matched.
09:21:52   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
09:21:52   Pointing error is 3.359 arcmin @ angle 261.79
09:21:52   True focal length is 3468.3 mm.
09:21:52   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
09:21:52   True image center (J2000): 12h 39m 17.9s   21° 07' 37.60"
09:21:52   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
09:21:52   [sync] pointing model updated
09:21:52   Re-slew to target.
09:21:52   Start slew to IR_Com...
09:21:54   (wait for slew to complete)
09:22:04   (slew complete)
09:22:04   Target is now centered.
09:22:04   (high cadence option, no web previews)
09:22:04   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
09:22:04   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
09:22:04   Focus change of 270 steps required
09:22:07   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
09:22:23   (guide star SNR=3.5 X=1124 Y=954)
09:22:23   (first exposure estimate 4.32 sec)
09:22:30 **No stars at all found in guider image
09:22:30 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
09:22:30 **Autoguiding failed.
