Licensed to Arne Henden
04:10:36 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:10:36 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:10:36   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:10:36 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:10:37 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:10:37 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:10:37 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:10:37 Dome is MaxDome
04:10:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:10:37 Imager is ASCOM
04:10:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:10:37 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240118@040916 UTC
04:10:37 Imager readout modes:
04:10:37   0 is Fast
04:10:37   1 is Normal
04:10:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:10:37 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:10:37 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:10:37 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:10:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:10:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:10:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:10:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:10:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:10:37 ==== Starting target HQ_Mon ====
04:10:37 ACPS Observation HQ_Mon(1 of 1)
04:10:37   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan HQ_Mon)
04:10:37   (turning on sidereal tracking)

04:11:56   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:11:56   Focus change of -290 steps required
04:12:00   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:12:00   (using Fast readout mode)
04:12:00   (starting exposure)

04:12:28   Image finished
04:12:28   Plate-solve pointing image.
04:12:28   83 image stars found
04:12:29   415 catalog stars found
04:12:37 ** No matching stars found. Check your estimated center-point RA/Dec, and your image scaling and quality.
04:12:37   Start slew to offset...
