Licensed to Arne Henden
01:42:07 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:42:07 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:42:07   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:42:07 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:42:08 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:42:08 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:42:08 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:42:08 Dome is MaxDome
01:42:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:42:08 Imager is ASCOM
01:42:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:42:08 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240117@013546 UTC
01:42:08 Imager readout modes:
01:42:08   0 is Fast
01:42:08   1 is Normal
01:42:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:42:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:42:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:42:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:42:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:42:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:42:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:42:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:42:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:42:08 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:42:08 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:42:08   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:42:08   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:42:09 Pointing updates are enabled
01:42:09 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
01:42:09   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:42:10   (wait for slew to complete)
01:43:55   (slew complete)
01:43:55     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-21435s GW=T HAz=-20933s DWz=T WF=no]
01:43:55   Updating pointing...
01:43:55   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
01:43:55   Focus change of -320 steps required
01:43:59   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
01:43:59   (using Fast readout mode)
01:43:59   (starting exposure)
01:44:25   (exposure complete)
01:44:28   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
01:44:29   Image finished
01:44:29   Plate-solve pointing image.
01:44:30   234 image stars found
01:44:30   252 catalog stars found
01:44:31   Solved! 90 stars matched.
01:44:31   Average residual is 0.32 arcsec.
01:44:31   Pointing error is 1.438 arcmin @ angle 207.66
01:44:31   True focal length is 3464.0 mm.
01:44:31   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:44:31   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 32.4s   47° 49' 26.09"
01:44:31   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:44:31   [sync] pointing model updated
01:44:31   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:44:31   Target is now centered.
01:44:31   (high cadence option, no web previews)
01:44:31   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
01:44:31   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
01:44:31   Focus change of 50 steps required
01:44:33   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
01:44:43   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
01:44:43 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:44:44 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
01:44:57   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=547.1166 Y=449.1151
01:44:57 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:44:58 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
01:44:58 **Autoguiding failed.
