This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
09:02:17 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
09:02:17 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:02:17   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:02:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:02:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:02:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:02:18 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:02:18 Dome is MaxDome
09:02:18 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:02:18 Imager is ASCOM
09:02:18 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:02:18 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240216@085535 UTC
09:02:18 Imager readout modes:
09:02:18   0 is Fast
09:02:18   1 is Normal
09:02:18 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:02:18 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:02:18 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:02:18 Guider is set to multi-star mode
09:02:18 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:02:18 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:02:18 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:02:18 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:02:18 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:02:18 ==== Starting target M5-V42 ====
09:02:18 ACPS Observation M5-V42(1 of 1)
09:02:18   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P246_KPRB_AUTO_ver3426, Plan M5-V42)
09:02:18   (turning on sidereal tracking)
09:02:18 Pointing updates are enabled
09:02:18 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
09:02:18   Start slew to M5-V42...
09:02:20   (wait for slew to complete)
09:02:39   (slew complete)

09:02:39   Updating pointing...
09:02:39   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
09:02:39   Focus change of -50 steps required
09:02:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
09:02:42   (using Fast readout mode)
09:02:42   (starting exposure)
09:08:23 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
09:08:23   (high cadence option, no web previews)
09:08:23   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
09:08:23   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
09:08:23   Focus change of 320 steps required
09:08:27   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
09:08:39   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
09:08:40 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
09:08:40 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
09:08:52   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
09:08:53 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
09:08:53 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
09:08:53 **Autoguiding failed.
09:08:53   (**AG failed, but individual exposure(s) can be unguided)

09:08:53   Imaging to M5-V42_B_20240216_090853_T3
09:08:53   (taking 23.68 sec. exposure, B filter, binning = 2)
09:08:53   (using Normal readout mode)
09:08:53   (starting exposure)
09:14:49   (exposure complete)
09:16:58 **Exposure timed out waiting for ImageReady.
