Licensed to Arne Henden
04:05:46 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:05:46 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:05:46   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:05:46 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:05:47 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:05:47 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:05:47 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:05:47 Dome is MaxDome
04:05:47 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:05:47 Imager is ASCOM
04:05:47 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:05:47 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240119@035350 UTC
04:05:47 Imager readout modes:
04:05:47   0 is Fast
04:05:47   1 is Normal
04:05:47 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:05:47 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:05:47 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:05:47 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:05:47 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:05:47 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:05:47 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:05:47 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:05:47 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

04:07:04   362 catalog stars found
04:07:05   Solved! 141 stars matched.
04:07:05   Average residual is 0.26 arcsec.

04:07:05   Start slew to V900_Mon...
04:07:07   (wait for slew to complete)
04:07:16   (slew complete)
04:07:16   Target is now centered.
04:07:16   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:07:16   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
04:07:16   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
04:07:16   Focus change of 320 steps required

04:09:57 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:09:57 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
