04:53:17 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:53:17 Custom image file path/names are in use

04:53:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:53:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:53:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:53:18 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:53:18 Dome is MaxDome
04:53:18 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:53:18 Imager is ASCOM
04:53:18 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:53:18 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240213@045033 UTC
04:53:18 Imager readout modes:
04:53:18   0 is Fast
04:53:18   1 is Normal
04:53:18 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:53:18 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:53:18 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:53:18 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:53:18 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:53:19 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:53:19 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:53:19 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:53:19 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:53:19 ==== Starting target HQ_Mon ====
04:53:19 ACPS Observation HQ_Mon(1 of 1)
04:53:19   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan HQ_Mon)
04:53:19   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:53:19 Pointing updates are enabled
04:53:19 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:53:19   Start slew to HQ_Mon...
04:53:20   (wait for slew to complete)

04:53:39   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:53:39   Focus change of 20 steps required
04:53:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:53:42   (using Fast readout mode)
04:53:42   (starting exposure)
04:54:00   (exposure complete)
04:54:02   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
04:54:03   Image finished
04:54:03   Plate-solve pointing image.

04:54:04   415 catalog stars found
04:54:05   Solved! 146 stars matched.
04:54:05   Average residual is 0.37 arcsec.

04:54:05   Start slew to HQ_Mon...
04:54:09   (wait for slew to complete)
04:54:19   (slew complete)
04:54:19   Target is now centered.
04:54:19   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:54:19   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
04:54:19   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging

04:54:23   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
04:54:36   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=938.1176 Y=924.2813
04:54:37   (guide star SNR=25.9 X=938 Y=924)
04:54:37   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
