07:11:17 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:11:17 Custom image file path/names are in use

07:11:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:11:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:11:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:11:18 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:11:18 Dome is MaxDome
07:11:18 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:11:18 Imager is ASCOM
07:11:18 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:11:18 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20240215@071042 UTC
07:11:18 Imager readout modes:
07:11:18   0 is Fast
07:11:18   1 is Normal
07:11:18 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:11:18 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:11:18 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:11:18 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:11:18 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:11:18 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:11:18 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:11:18 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:11:18 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:11:18 ==== Starting target QX_Pup ====
07:11:18 ACPS Observation QX_Pup(1 of 1)
07:11:18   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan QX_Pup)
07:11:18   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:11:19 Pointing updates are enabled
07:11:19 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:11:19   Start slew to QX_Pup...
07:11:20   (wait for slew to complete)
07:12:30   (slew complete)

07:12:30   Updating pointing...
07:12:30   Switching from R to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:12:30   Focus change of -270 steps required
07:12:34   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:12:34   (using Fast readout mode)
07:12:34   (starting exposure)
07:12:57   (exposure complete)
07:13:00   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:13:01   Image finished
07:13:01   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:13:02   1955 image stars found
07:13:02   601 catalog stars found
07:13:03   Solved! 180 stars matched.
07:13:03   Average residual is 0.24 arcsec.
07:13:03   Pointing error is 1.185 arcmin @ angle 68.47
07:13:03   True focal length is 3467.7 mm.
07:13:03   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:13:03   True image center (J2000): 07h 41m 51.8s   -14° 48' 11.91"
07:13:03   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
07:13:03   [sync] pointing model updated
07:13:03   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:13:03   Target is now centered.
07:13:03   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:13:03   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
07:13:03   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
07:13:03   Focus change of -20 steps required
07:13:05   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:13:19   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=45.12823 Y=136.2607
