This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
05:29:22 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:29:22 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:29:22   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:29:22 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:29:23 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:29:23 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:29:23 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:29:23 Dome is MaxDome
05:29:23 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:29:23 Imager is ASCOM
05:29:23 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:29:23 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240216@052849 UTC
05:29:23 Imager readout modes:
05:29:23   0 is Fast
05:29:23   1 is Normal
05:29:23 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:29:23 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:29:23 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:29:23 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:29:23 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:29:23 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:29:23 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:29:23 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:29:23 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:29:23 ==== Starting target BX_Pup ====
05:29:23 ACPS Observation BX_Pup(1 of 1)
05:29:23   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan BX_Pup)
05:29:23   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:29:23 Pointing updates are enabled
05:29:23 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:29:23   Start slew to BX_Pup...
05:29:25   (wait for slew to complete)
05:29:54   (slew complete)
05:29:54     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=641s GW=T HAz=1181s DWz=T WF=no]
05:29:54   Updating pointing...
05:29:54   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:29:54   Focus change of 20 steps required
05:29:57   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:29:57   (using Fast readout mode)
05:29:57   (starting exposure)
05:35:39 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
05:35:39   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:35:39   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:35:39   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
05:35:39   Focus change of 290 steps required
05:35:42   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:35:55   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
05:35:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:35:56 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:36:08   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
05:36:08 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:36:09 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:36:09 **Autoguiding failed.
