12:00:13 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
12:00:13 Custom image file path/names are in use
12:00:13   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
12:00:13 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:00:14 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:00:14 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:00:14 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:00:14 Dome is MaxDome
12:00:14 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:00:14 Imager is ASCOM
12:00:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:00:14 Selecting filter Open from previous ACP run at 20240216@115942 UTC
12:00:14 Imager readout modes:
12:00:14   0 is Fast
12:00:14   1 is Normal
12:00:14 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:00:14 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:00:14 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:00:14 Guider is set to multi-star mode
12:00:14 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:00:14 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:00:14 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:00:14 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:00:14 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
12:00:14 ==== Starting target CG_Dra ====
12:00:14 ACPS Observation CG_Dra(1 of 1)
12:00:14   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P211_BENS_AUTO_ver2706, Plan CG_Dra)
12:00:14   (turning on sidereal tracking)
12:00:14 Pointing updates are enabled
12:00:14 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0

12:00:44   Switching from Open to SR filter for pointing exposure
12:00:44   Focus change of 360 steps required
12:00:48   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
12:00:48   (using Fast readout mode)
12:00:48   (starting exposure)
12:06:30 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
12:06:30   (high cadence option, no web previews)
12:06:30   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
12:06:30   Switching from SR to Open filter for imaging
12:06:30   Focus change of -360 steps required
12:06:33   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
12:06:44   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
12:06:45 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
12:06:45 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
12:06:57   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
12:06:57 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
12:06:58 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
12:06:58 **Autoguiding failed.
