This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
04:25:23 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:25:23 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:25:23   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:25:23 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:25:24 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:25:24 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:25:24 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:25:24 Dome is MaxDome
04:25:24 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:25:24 Imager is ASCOM
04:25:24 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:25:24 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240216@042450 UTC
04:25:24 Imager readout modes:
04:25:24   0 is Fast
04:25:24   1 is Normal
04:25:24 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:25:24 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:25:24 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:25:24 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:25:24 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:25:24 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:25:24 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:25:24 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:25:24 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:25:24 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
04:25:24 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
04:25:24   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan GZ_Cnc)
04:25:24   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:25:25 Pointing updates are enabled
04:25:25 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:25:25   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
04:25:26   (wait for slew to complete)
04:26:36   (slew complete)
04:26:36     [flip check:  Tn=540s HAc=-8080s GW=T HAz=-7539s DWz=T WF=no]
04:26:36   Updating pointing...
04:26:36   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:26:36   Focus change of -290 steps required
04:26:40   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:26:40   (using Fast readout mode)
04:26:40   (starting exposure)
04:32:21 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
04:32:21   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:32:21   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
04:32:21   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
04:32:21   Focus change of 290 steps required
04:32:25   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
04:32:38   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
04:32:39 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:32:39 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
04:32:51   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
04:32:51 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
04:32:52 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
04:32:52 **Autoguiding failed.
