06:04:59 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:04:59 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:04:59   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:04:59 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:05:00 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:05:00 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:05:00 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:05:01 Dome is MaxDome
06:05:01 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:05:01 Imager is ASCOM
06:05:01 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:05:01 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20231013@060246 UTC
06:05:01 Imager readout modes:
06:05:01   0 is Fast
06:05:01   1 is Normal
06:05:01 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:05:01 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:05:01 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:05:01 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:05:01 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:05:01 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:05:01 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:05:01 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:05:01 ==== Starting target CSS_J212625 ====
06:05:01 ACPS Observation CSS_J212625(1 of 1)
06:05:01   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan CSS_J212625)
06:05:01   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:05:01 Pointing updates are enabled
06:05:01 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:05:01   Start slew to CSS_J212625...

06:05:42   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
06:05:42   Focus change of -320 steps required
06:05:46   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:05:46   (using Fast readout mode)
06:05:46   (starting exposure)
06:06:12   (exposure complete)
06:06:15   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:06:16   Image finished
06:06:16   Plate-solve pointing image.
06:06:17   811 image stars found
06:06:17   156 catalog stars found
06:06:18   Solved! 72 stars matched.
06:06:18   Average residual is 0.3 arcsec.

06:06:18   [sync] pointing model updated
06:06:18   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
06:06:18   Target is now centered.
06:06:18   (high cadence option, no web previews)
06:06:18   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
06:06:18   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
