06:58:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:58:32 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:58:32   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:58:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:58:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:58:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:58:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:58:33 Dome is MaxDome
06:58:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:58:33 Imager is ASCOM
06:58:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:58:33 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20240215@065501 UTC
06:58:33 Imager readout modes:
06:58:33   0 is Fast
06:58:33   1 is Normal
06:58:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:58:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:58:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:58:33 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:58:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:58:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:58:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:58:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:58:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:58:33 ==== Starting target HS1340+1524 ====
06:58:33 ACPS Observation HS1340+1524(1 of 1)
06:58:33   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_PYG_AUTO_ver3260, Plan HS1340+1524)
06:58:33   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:58:33 Pointing updates are enabled
06:58:33 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:58:33   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
06:58:35   (wait for slew to complete)
07:00:01   (slew complete)
07:00:01     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=-15130s GW=T HAz=-14650s DWz=T WF=no]
07:00:01   Updating pointing...
07:00:01   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:00:01   No focus change required
07:00:01   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:00:01   (using Fast readout mode)
07:00:01   (starting exposure)
07:00:21   (exposure complete)
07:00:24   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:00:25   Image finished
07:00:25   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:00:26   164 image stars found
07:00:26   113 catalog stars found
07:00:27   Solved! 31 stars matched.
07:00:27   Average residual is 0.31 arcsec.
07:00:27   Pointing error is 0.864 arcmin @ angle 260.73
07:00:27   True focal length is 3467.5 mm.
07:00:27   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:00:27   True image center (J2000): 13h 43m 19.9s   15° 09' 07.65"
07:00:27   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
07:00:27   [sync] pointing model updated
07:00:27   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:00:27   Target is now centered.
07:00:27   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:00:27   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
07:00:27   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
07:00:27   Focus change of 290 steps required
07:00:31   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:00:45   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
07:00:45 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:00:46 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:00:58   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=686 Y=583.9662
07:00:59 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:00:59 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
07:00:59 **Autoguiding failed.
