Licensed to Arne Henden
10:08:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:08:32 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:08:32   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:08:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:08:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:08:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:08:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:08:33 Dome is MaxDome
10:08:34 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:08:34 Imager is ASCOM
10:08:34 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:08:34 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240216@100800 UTC
10:08:34 Imager readout modes:
10:08:34   0 is Fast
10:08:34   1 is Normal
10:08:34 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:08:34 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:08:34 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:08:34 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:08:34 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:08:34 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:08:34 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:08:34 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:08:34 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:08:34 ==== Starting target IR_Com ====
10:08:34 ACPS Observation IR_Com(1 of 1)
10:08:34   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan IR_Com)
10:08:34   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:08:34 Pointing updates are enabled
10:08:34 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:08:34   Start slew to IR_Com...
10:08:36   (wait for slew to complete)
10:09:10   (slew complete)
10:09:10     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=316s GW=T HAz=916s DWz=T WF=no]
10:09:10   Updating pointing...
10:09:10   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:09:10   Focus change of -290 steps required
10:09:14   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:09:14   (using Fast readout mode)
10:09:14   (starting exposure)
10:14:56 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
10:14:56   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:14:56   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
10:14:56   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
10:14:56   Focus change of 270 steps required
10:15:00   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:15:13   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
10:15:14 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
10:15:14 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
10:15:26   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
10:15:26 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
10:15:27 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
10:15:27 **Autoguiding failed.
