01:49:24 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:49:24 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:49:24   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:49:24 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:49:25 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:49:25 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:49:25 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:49:25 Dome is MaxDome
01:49:25 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:49:25 Imager is ASCOM
01:49:25 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:49:25 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240213@014544 UTC
01:49:25 Imager readout modes:
01:49:25   0 is Fast
01:49:25   1 is Normal
01:49:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:49:25 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:49:25 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:49:25 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:49:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:49:25 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:49:25 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:49:25 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:49:25 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:49:25 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:49:25 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:49:25   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:49:25   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:49:25 Pointing updates are enabled
01:49:25 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
01:49:25   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:49:27   (wait for slew to complete)
01:50:47   (slew complete)
01:50:47     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-14636s GW=T HAz=-14134s DWz=T WF=no]
01:50:47   Updating pointing...
01:50:47   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
01:50:47   (using Fast readout mode)
01:50:47   (starting exposure)
01:51:02   (exposure complete)
01:51:05   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
01:51:06   Image finished
01:51:06   Plate-solve pointing image.
01:51:06   341 image stars found
01:51:06   252 catalog stars found
01:51:08   Solved! 106 stars matched.
01:51:08   Average residual is 0.29 arcsec.
01:51:08   Pointing error is 0.763 arcmin @ angle 243.99
01:51:08   True focal length is 3466.2 mm.
01:51:08   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:51:08   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 32.3s   47° 50' 22.42"
01:51:08   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:51:08   [sync] pointing model updated
01:51:08   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:51:08   Target is now centered.
01:51:08   (high cadence option, no web previews)
