Licensed to Arne Henden
03:01:13 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:01:13 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:01:13   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:01:13 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:01:14 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:01:14 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:01:14 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:01:14 Dome is MaxDome
03:01:14 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:01:14 Imager is ASCOM
03:01:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:01:14 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240119@030004 UTC
03:01:14 Imager readout modes:
03:01:14   0 is Fast
03:01:14   1 is Normal
03:01:14 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:01:14 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:01:15 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:01:15 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:01:15 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:01:15 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:01:15 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:01:15 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:01:15 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:01:15 ==== Starting target GZ_Cet ====
03:01:15 ACPS Observation GZ_Cet(1 of 1)
03:01:15   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan GZ_Cet)
03:01:15   (turning on sidereal tracking)
03:01:15 Pointing updates are enabled
03:01:15 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
03:01:15   Start slew to GZ_Cet...
03:01:16   (wait for slew to complete)
03:02:07   (slew complete)
03:02:07     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=7751s GW=T HAz=8231s DWz=T WF=no]
03:02:07   Updating pointing...
03:02:07   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:02:07   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:02:07   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:02:07   (using Fast readout mode)
03:02:07   (starting exposure)
03:02:32   (exposure complete)
03:02:35   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:02:36   Image finished
03:02:36   Plate-solve pointing image.
03:02:37   120 image stars found
03:02:37   91 catalog stars found
03:02:38   Solved! 12 stars matched.
03:02:38   Average residual is 0.34 arcsec.
03:02:38   Pointing error is 0.347 arcmin @ angle 295.15
03:02:38   True focal length is 3479.8 mm.
03:02:38   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
03:02:38   True image center (J2000): 01h 36m 59.8s   -09° 12' 25.34"
03:02:38   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
03:02:38   [sync] pointing model updated
03:02:38   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
03:02:38   Target is now centered.
03:02:38   (high cadence option, no web previews)
