Licensed to Arne Henden
07:49:21 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:49:21 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:49:21   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:49:21 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:49:22 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:49:22 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:49:22 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:49:22 Dome is MaxDome
07:49:22 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:49:22 Imager is ASCOM
07:49:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:49:22 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240213@074812 UTC
07:49:22 Imager readout modes:
07:49:22   0 is Fast
07:49:22   1 is Normal
07:49:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:49:22 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:49:22 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:49:22 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:49:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:49:22 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:49:22 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:49:22 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:49:22 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:49:22 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
07:49:22 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
07:49:22   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_MZK_AUTO_ver2706, Plan GZ_Cnc)
07:49:22   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:49:22 Pointing updates are enabled
07:49:22 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:49:22   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
07:49:24   (wait for slew to complete)
07:50:59   (slew complete)
07:50:59     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=3507s GW=T HAz=4047s DWz=T WF=no]
07:50:59   Updating pointing...
07:50:59   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:50:59   Focus change of -320 steps required
07:51:03   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:51:03   (using Fast readout mode)
07:51:03   (starting exposure)
07:51:29   (exposure complete)
07:51:31   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:51:32   Image finished
07:51:32   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:51:33   294 image stars found
07:51:33   127 catalog stars found
07:51:34   Solved! 58 stars matched.
07:51:34   Average residual is 0.4 arcsec.
07:51:34   Pointing error is 1.914 arcmin @ angle 79.39
07:51:34   True focal length is 3467.4 mm.
07:51:34   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:51:34   True image center (J2000): 09h 15m 59.3s   09° 01' 09.15"
07:51:34   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
07:51:34   [sync] pointing model updated
07:51:34   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:51:34   Target is now centered.
