Licensed to Arne Henden
03:32:51 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:32:51 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:32:51   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:32:51 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:32:52 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:32:52 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:32:52 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:32:52 Dome is MaxDome
03:32:52 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:32:52 Imager is ASCOM
03:32:52 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:32:52 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240213@033146 UTC
03:32:52 Imager readout modes:
03:32:52   0 is Fast
03:32:52   1 is Normal
03:32:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:32:52 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:32:52 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:32:52 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:32:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:32:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:32:52 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:32:52 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:32:52 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:32:52 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
03:32:52 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
03:32:52   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan GZ_Cnc)
03:32:52   (turning on sidereal tracking)
03:32:52 Pointing updates are enabled
03:32:52 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
03:32:52   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
03:32:54   (wait for slew to complete)
03:33:39   (slew complete)

03:33:39   Updating pointing...
03:33:39   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:33:39   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:33:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:33:42   (using Fast readout mode)
03:33:42   (starting exposure)
03:34:07   (exposure complete)
03:34:09   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:34:10   Image finished
03:34:10   Plate-solve pointing image.
03:34:11   314 image stars found
03:34:11   127 catalog stars found
03:34:12   Solved! 48 stars matched.
03:34:12   Average residual is 0.31 arcsec.
03:34:12   Pointing error is 1.664 arcmin @ angle 277.06
03:34:12   True focal length is 3471.6 mm.
03:34:12   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
03:34:12   True image center (J2000): 09h 15m 45.0s   09° 01' 00.26"
03:34:12   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
03:34:12   [sync] pointing model updated
03:34:12   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
03:34:12   Target is now centered.
03:34:12   (high cadence option, no web previews)
03:34:12   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
03:34:12   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
03:34:12   Focus change of 290 steps required
03:34:16   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
03:34:30   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
03:34:30 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:34:31 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
03:34:43   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=751.5657 Y=586.0791
03:34:44   (guide star SNR=3.9 X=751 Y=586)
03:34:44   (first exposure estimate 7.6 sec)
03:34:55   (guide star SNR=3.0 X=749 Y=583)
03:34:55   (final exposure for guiding 7.54 sec)
03:35:06   (guide star SNR=3.0 X=747 Y=582)
03:35:08 **Guider unexpectedly stopped while waiting for measurement
03:35:09   (take guider image at initial interval 7.54 sec)
03:35:20   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1027 Y=945
03:35:20 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:35:21 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
03:35:34   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=722.8943 Y=913.0001
03:35:34 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:35:34 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
03:35:35 **Autoguiding failed.
