Licensed to Arne Henden
04:20:44 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:20:44 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:20:44   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:20:44 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:20:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:20:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:20:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:20:45 Dome is MaxDome
04:20:45 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:20:45 Imager is ASCOM
04:20:45 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:20:45 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240215@042019 UTC
04:20:45 Imager readout modes:
04:20:45   0 is Fast
04:20:45   1 is Normal
04:20:45 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:20:45 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:20:45 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:20:45 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:20:45 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:20:45 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:20:45 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:20:45 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:20:45 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:20:45 ==== Starting target GR_Ori ====
04:20:45 ACPS Observation GR_Ori(1 of 1)
04:20:45   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan GR_Ori)
04:20:45   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:20:45 Pointing updates are enabled
04:20:45 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:20:45   Start slew to GR_Ori...
04:20:47   (wait for slew to complete)
04:21:36   (slew complete)

04:21:36   Updating pointing...
04:21:36   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:21:36   Focus change of -290 steps required
04:21:40   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:21:40   (using Fast readout mode)
04:21:41   (starting exposure)
04:22:05   (exposure complete)
04:22:07   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
04:22:08   Image finished
04:22:08   Plate-solve pointing image.
04:22:09   628 image stars found
04:22:09   368 catalog stars found
04:22:10   Solved! 150 stars matched.
04:22:10   Average residual is 0.26 arcsec.
04:22:10   Pointing error is 3.435 arcmin @ angle 273.89
04:22:10   True focal length is 3469.7 mm.
04:22:10   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
04:22:10   True image center (J2000): 05h 21m 21.6s   01° 10' 26.17"
04:22:10   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
04:22:10   [sync] pointing model updated
04:22:10   Re-slew to target.
04:22:10   Start slew to GR_Ori...
04:22:12   (wait for slew to complete)
04:22:22   (slew complete)
04:22:22   Target is now centered.
04:22:22   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:22:22   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
04:22:22   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
04:22:22   Focus change of 320 steps required
04:22:25   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
04:22:38   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=330.3839 Y=498.437
04:22:39   (guide star SNR=16.9 X=330 Y=498)
04:22:39   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
04:22:44   (guide star SNR=2.9 X=331 Y=498)
04:22:44   (final exposure for guiding 1.03 sec)
04:22:49   (guide star SNR=3.6 X=329 Y=498)
04:22:50 **Guider unexpectedly stopped while waiting for measurement
04:22:51   (take guider image at initial interval 1.03 sec)
04:22:55   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=452 Y=347
04:22:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:22:56 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
04:23:09   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1325.797 Y=608.1353
04:23:10 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:23:10 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
04:23:10 **Autoguiding failed.
