Licensed to Arne Henden
04:51:34 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:51:34 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:51:34   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:51:34 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:51:35 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:51:35 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:51:35 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:51:35 Dome is MaxDome
04:51:35 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:51:35 Imager is ASCOM
04:51:35 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:51:35 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240214@045102 UTC
04:51:35 Imager readout modes:
04:51:35   0 is Fast
04:51:35   1 is Normal
04:51:35 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:51:35 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:51:35 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:51:35 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:51:35 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:51:36 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:51:36 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:51:36 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:51:36 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:51:36 ==== Starting target QZ_Aur ====
04:51:36 ACPS Observation QZ_Aur(1 of 1)
04:51:36   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan QZ_Aur)
04:51:36   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:51:36 Pointing updates are enabled
04:51:36 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:51:36   Start slew to QZ_Aur...
04:51:37   (wait for slew to complete)
04:52:47   (slew complete)
04:52:47     [flip check:  Tn=460s HAc=6643s GW=T HAz=7103s DWz=T WF=no]
04:52:47   Updating pointing...
04:52:47   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:52:47   Focus change of -290 steps required
04:52:51   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:52:51   (using Fast readout mode)
04:52:51   (starting exposure)
04:58:26 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
04:58:26   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:58:26   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
04:58:26   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
04:58:26   Focus change of 320 steps required
04:58:30   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
04:58:42   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
04:58:43 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:58:43 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
04:58:55   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
04:58:55 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:58:55 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
04:58:55 **Autoguiding failed.
