07:24:49 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:24:49 Custom image file path/names are in use

07:24:49 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:24:50 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:24:50 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:24:50 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:24:50 Dome is MaxDome
07:24:50 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:24:50 Imager is ASCOM
07:24:50 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:24:50 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240127@072344 UTC
07:24:50 Imager readout modes:
07:24:50   0 is Fast
07:24:50   1 is Normal
07:24:50 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:24:50 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:24:50 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:24:50 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:24:50 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:24:50 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:24:50 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:24:50 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:24:50 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:24:50 ==== Starting target OI_158 ====

07:25:28   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:25:28   Focus change of -320 steps required
07:25:32   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:25:32   (using Fast readout mode)
07:25:32   (starting exposure)
07:25:58   (exposure complete)
07:26:00   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:26:02   Image finished
07:26:02   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:26:02   482 image stars found
07:26:02   440 catalog stars found
07:26:03   Solved! 157 stars matched.
07:26:03   Average residual is 0.26 arcsec.
