Licensed to Arne Henden
05:40:40 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:40:40 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:40:40   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:40:40 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:40:42 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:40:42 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:40:42 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:40:42 Dome is MaxDome
05:40:42 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:40:42 Imager is ASCOM
05:40:42 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:40:42 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240213@053743 UTC
05:40:42 Imager readout modes:
05:40:42   0 is Fast
05:40:42   1 is Normal
05:40:42 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:40:42 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:40:42 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:40:42 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:40:42 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:40:42 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:40:42 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:40:42 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:40:42 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:40:42 ==== Starting target SU_Lyn ====
05:40:42 ACPS Observation SU_Lyn(1 of 1)
05:40:42   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan SU_Lyn)
05:40:42   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:40:42 Pointing updates are enabled
05:40:42 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:40:42   Start slew to SU_Lyn...
05:40:44   (wait for slew to complete)
05:41:10   (slew complete)

05:41:10   Updating pointing...
05:41:10   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:41:10   Focus change of -320 steps required
05:41:13   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:41:13   (using Fast readout mode)
05:41:13   (starting exposure)
05:41:39   (exposure complete)
05:41:42   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
05:41:43   Image finished
05:41:43   Plate-solve pointing image.
05:41:44   710 image stars found
05:41:44   350 catalog stars found
05:41:45   Solved! 133 stars matched.
05:41:45   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
05:41:45   Pointing error is 1.627 arcmin @ angle 271.14
05:41:45   True focal length is 3468.6 mm.
05:41:45   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
05:41:45   True image center (J2000): 06h 42m 43.7s   55° 28' 29.11"
05:41:45   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
05:41:45   [sync] pointing model updated
05:41:45   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:41:45   Target is now centered.
05:41:45   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:41:45   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:41:45   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
05:41:45   Focus change of 320 steps required
05:41:49   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:42:02   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1207.843 Y=500.9409
05:42:03   (guide star SNR=very high X=1208 Y=501)
05:42:03   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
