Licensed to Arne Henden
06:28:28 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:28:28 Custom image file path/names are in use

06:28:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:28:29 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:28:29 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:28:29 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:28:29 Dome is MaxDome
06:28:29 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:28:29 Imager is ASCOM
06:28:29 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:28:29 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240127@062410 UTC
06:28:29 Imager readout modes:
06:28:29   0 is Fast
06:28:29   1 is Normal
06:28:29 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:28:29 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:28:29 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:28:29 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:28:29 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:28:29 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:28:29 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:28:29 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:28:29 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:28:29 ==== Starting target BX_Pup ====
06:28:29 ACPS Observation BX_Pup(1 of 1)
06:28:29   (belongs to Project AAVSO_ZCAM_HQA_AUTO_ver3443, Plan BX_Pup)
06:28:29   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:28:29 Pointing updates are enabled
06:28:29 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:28:29   Start slew to BX_Pup...
06:28:31   (wait for slew to complete)

06:29:26   Updating pointing...
06:29:26   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
06:29:26   Focus change of -320 steps required
06:29:30   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:29:30   (using Fast readout mode)
06:29:30   (starting exposure)
06:29:55   (exposure complete)
06:29:58   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:29:59   Image finished
