03:19:35 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:19:35 Custom image file path/names are in use

03:19:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:19:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:19:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:19:36 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:19:36 Dome is MaxDome
03:19:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:19:37 Imager is ASCOM
03:19:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:19:37 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240215@031102 UTC
03:19:37 Imager readout modes:
03:19:37   0 is Fast
03:19:37   1 is Normal
03:19:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:19:37 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:19:37 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:19:37 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:19:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:19:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:19:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:19:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:19:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:19:37 ==== Starting target CW_Mon ====

03:19:37   (turning on sidereal tracking)
03:19:37 Pointing updates are enabled
03:19:37 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
03:19:37   Start slew to CW_Mon...
03:19:38   (wait for slew to complete)
03:20:08   (slew complete)

03:20:09   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:20:09   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:20:12   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:20:12   (using Fast readout mode)
03:20:12   (starting exposure)
03:20:36   (exposure complete)
03:20:39   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:20:40   Image finished
03:20:40   Plate-solve pointing image.
03:20:40   1253 image stars found
03:20:41   207 catalog stars found
03:20:42   Solved! 122 stars matched.
03:20:42   Average residual is 0.26 arcsec.
03:20:42   Pointing error is 2.845 arcmin @ angle 275.61
03:20:42   True focal length is 3468.6 mm.
03:20:42   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
