04:42:55 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:42:55 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:42:55   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:42:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:42:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:42:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:42:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:42:56 Dome is MaxDome
04:42:56 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:42:56 Imager is ASCOM
04:42:56 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:42:56 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230325@044157 UTC
04:42:56 Imager readout modes:
04:42:56   0 is Fast
04:42:56   1 is Normal
04:42:56 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:42:56 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:42:56 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:42:56 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:42:56 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:42:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:42:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:42:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:42:56 ==== Starting target QZ_Aur ====
04:42:56 ACPS Observation QZ_Aur(1 of 1)
04:42:56   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan QZ_Aur)
04:42:56   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:42:57 Pointing updates are enabled
04:42:57 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:42:57   Start slew to QZ_Aur...
04:42:58   (wait for slew to complete)
04:43:23   (slew complete)
04:43:23     [flip check:  Tn=460s HAc=15350s GW=T HAz=15810s DWz=T WF=no]
04:43:23   Updating pointing...
04:43:23   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:43:23   Focus change of -290 steps required
04:43:27   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:43:28   (using Fast readout mode)
04:43:28   (starting exposure)
04:43:52   (exposure complete)
04:43:54   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
04:43:55   Image finished
04:43:55   Plate-solve pointing image.
04:43:56   614 image stars found
04:43:56   486 catalog stars found
04:43:57   Solved! 142 stars matched.
04:43:57   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
04:43:57   Pointing error is 2.615 arcmin @ angle 273.07
04:43:57   True focal length is 3467.8 mm.
04:43:57   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
04:43:57   True image center (J2000): 05h 28m 21.6s   33° 18' 30.17"
04:43:57   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
04:43:57   [sync] pointing model updated
04:43:57   Re-slew to target.
04:43:57   Start slew to QZ_Aur...
04:43:59   (wait for slew to complete)
04:44:09   (slew complete)
04:44:09   Target is now centered.
04:44:09   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:44:09   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
04:44:09   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
04:44:09   Focus change of 320 steps required
04:44:13   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
04:44:28 **No stars at all found in guider image
04:44:28 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
04:44:41 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
04:44:41 **Autoguiding failed.
