Licensed to Arne Henden
07:14:16 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:14:16 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:14:16   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:14:16 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:14:17 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:14:17 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:14:17 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:14:17 Dome is MaxDome
07:14:18 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:14:18 Imager is ASCOM
07:14:18 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:14:18 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240215@071305 UTC
07:14:18 Imager readout modes:
07:14:18   0 is Fast
07:14:18   1 is Normal
07:14:18 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:14:18 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:14:18 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:14:18 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:14:18 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:14:18 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:14:18 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:14:18 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:14:18 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:14:18 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
07:14:18 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
07:14:18   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_MZK_AUTO_ver2706, Plan GZ_Cnc)
07:14:18   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:14:18 Pointing updates are enabled
07:14:18 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:14:18   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
07:14:19   (wait for slew to complete)
07:14:50   (slew complete)
07:14:50     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=1805s GW=T HAz=2345s DWz=T WF=no]
07:14:50   Updating pointing...
07:14:50   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:14:50   Focus change of 20 steps required
07:14:53   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:14:53   (using Fast readout mode)
07:14:53   (starting exposure)
07:15:10   (exposure complete)
07:15:12   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:15:13   Image finished
07:15:13   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:15:13   246 image stars found
07:15:13   127 catalog stars found
07:15:15   Solved! 32 stars matched.
07:15:15   Average residual is 0.38 arcsec.
07:15:15   Pointing error is 3.265 arcmin @ angle 270.68
07:15:15   True focal length is 3472.0 mm.
07:15:15   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:15:15   True image center (J2000): 09h 15m 38.5s   09° 00' 50.30"
07:15:15   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
07:15:15   [sync] pointing model updated
07:15:15   Re-slew to target.
07:15:15   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
07:15:16   (wait for slew to complete)
07:15:26   (slew complete)
07:15:26   Target is now centered.
07:15:26   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:15:26   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
07:15:26   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
07:15:26   Focus change of 290 steps required
07:15:30   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:15:44   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1287 Y=882
07:15:44 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:15:45 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:15:58   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=686 Y=583.9775
07:15:58 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:15:58 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
07:15:58 **Autoguiding failed.
