This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
12:04:15 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
12:04:15 Custom image file path/names are in use
12:04:15   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
12:04:15 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:04:16 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:04:16 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:04:16 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:04:16 Dome is MaxDome
12:04:16 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:04:16 Imager is ASCOM
12:04:16 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:04:16 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240214@120342 UTC
12:04:16 Imager readout modes:
12:04:16   0 is Fast
12:04:16   1 is Normal
12:04:16 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:04:16 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:04:16 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:04:16 Guider is set to multi-star mode
12:04:16 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:04:16 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:04:16 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:04:16 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:04:16 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
12:04:16 ==== Starting target V0406_Vul ====
12:04:16 ACPS Observation V0406_Vul(1 of 1)
12:04:16   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P194_BPEC_AUTO_ver2706, Plan V0406_Vul)
12:04:16   (turning on sidereal tracking)
12:04:17 Pointing updates are enabled
12:04:17 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
12:04:17   Start slew to V0406_Vul...
12:04:18   (wait for slew to complete)
12:04:53   (slew complete)
12:04:53     [flip check:  Tn=510s HAc=-15931s GW=T HAz=-15421s DWz=T WF=no]
12:04:53   Updating pointing...
12:04:53   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
12:04:53   Focus change of -290 steps required
12:04:57   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
12:04:57   (using Fast readout mode)
12:04:57   (starting exposure)
12:10:37 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
12:10:37   (high cadence option, no web previews)
12:10:37   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
12:10:37   Switching from SR to Open filter for imaging
12:10:37   Focus change of -360 steps required
12:10:41   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
12:10:51   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
12:10:51 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
12:10:51 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
12:11:03   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
12:11:03 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
12:11:04 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
12:11:04 **Autoguiding failed.
