Licensed to Arne Henden
02:39:26 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:39:26 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:39:26   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:39:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:39:27 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:39:27 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:39:27 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:39:27 Dome is MaxDome
02:39:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:39:28 Imager is ASCOM
02:39:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:39:28 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240128@023821 UTC
02:39:28 Imager readout modes:
02:39:28   0 is Fast
02:39:28   1 is Normal
02:39:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:39:28 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:39:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:39:28 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:39:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:39:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:39:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:39:28 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:39:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:39:28 ==== Starting target MP_Gem ====
02:39:28 ACPS Observation MP_Gem(1 of 1)
02:39:28   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan MP_Gem)
02:39:28   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:39:28 Pointing updates are enabled
02:39:28 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:39:28   Start slew to MP_Gem...
02:39:30   (wait for slew to complete)
02:41:26   (slew complete)

02:41:26   Updating pointing...
02:41:26   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:41:26   Focus change of 20 steps required
02:41:29   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:41:29   (using Fast readout mode)
02:41:29   (starting exposure)
02:41:46   (exposure complete)
02:41:48   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:41:50   Image finished
02:41:50   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:41:50   1665 image stars found
02:41:50   315 catalog stars found
02:41:51   Solved! 125 stars matched.
02:41:52   Average residual is 0.25 arcsec.
02:41:52   Pointing error is 1.893 arcmin @ angle 273.35
02:41:52   True focal length is 3467.2 mm.
02:41:52   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:41:52   True image center (J2000): 06h 48m 25.3s   19° 37' 20.92"
02:41:52   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
02:41:52   [sync] pointing model updated
02:41:52   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:41:52   Target is now centered.
02:41:52   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:41:52   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
02:41:52   Switching from SR to SU filter for imaging
02:41:52   No focus change required
