This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
05:14:23 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:14:23 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:14:23   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:14:23 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:14:24 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:14:24 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:14:24 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:14:24 Dome is MaxDome
05:14:25 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:14:25 Imager is ASCOM
05:14:25 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:14:25 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20240216@051354 UTC
05:14:25 Imager readout modes:
05:14:25   0 is Fast
05:14:25   1 is Normal
05:14:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:14:25 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:14:25 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:14:25 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:14:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:14:25 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:14:25 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:14:25 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:14:25 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:14:25 ==== Starting target U_Leo ====
05:14:25 ACPS Observation U_Leo(1 of 1)
05:14:25   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan U_Leo)
05:14:25   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:14:25 Pointing updates are enabled
05:14:25 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:14:25   (wait for slew to complete)
05:14:35   (slew complete)
05:14:35   Start slew to U_Leo...
05:14:36   (wait for slew to complete)
05:15:31   (slew complete)
05:15:31     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=-9229s GW=T HAz=-8629s DWz=T WF=no]
05:15:31   Updating pointing...
05:15:31   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:15:31   No focus change required
05:15:31   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:15:31   (using Fast readout mode)
05:15:31   (starting exposure)
05:21:13 **Pointing update error from MaxIm.CCDCamera:
    **Exposure failed after being successfully started
05:21:13   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:21:14   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:21:14   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
05:21:14   Focus change of 290 steps required
05:21:17   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:21:30   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
05:21:31 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:21:31 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:21:43   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
05:21:43 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:21:44 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:21:44 **Autoguiding failed.
