Licensed to Arne Henden
02:57:14 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:57:14 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:57:14   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:57:14 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:57:15 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:57:15 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:57:15 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:57:15 Dome is MaxDome
02:57:15 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:57:15 Imager is ASCOM
02:57:15 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:57:15 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240216@025556 UTC
02:57:15 Imager readout modes:
02:57:15   0 is Fast
02:57:15   1 is Normal
02:57:15 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:57:15 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:57:15 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:57:15 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:57:15 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:57:15 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:57:15 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:57:15 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:57:15 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:57:15 ==== Starting target V1112_Per ====
02:57:15 ACPS Observation V1112_Per(1 of 1)
02:57:15   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P167_HGUA_AUTO_ver2706, Plan V1112_Per)
02:57:15   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:57:15 Pointing updates are enabled
02:57:15 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:57:15   Start slew to V1112_Per...
02:57:17   (wait for slew to complete)
02:57:48   (slew complete)

02:57:48   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:57:48   (using Fast readout mode)
02:57:48   (starting exposure)
02:58:04   (exposure complete)
02:58:07   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:58:08   Image finished
02:58:08   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:58:08   459 image stars found
02:58:08   424 catalog stars found
02:58:11   Solved! 117 stars matched.
02:58:11   Average residual is 0.31 arcsec.
02:58:11   Pointing error is 1.118 arcmin @ angle 85.60
02:58:11   True focal length is 3463.8 mm.
02:58:11   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:58:11   True image center (J2000): 04h 29m 25.0s   43° 54' 28.13"
02:58:11   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
02:58:11   [sync] pointing model updated
02:58:11   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:58:11   Target is now centered.
02:58:11   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:58:11   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
02:58:11   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
02:58:11   Focus change of 320 steps required
02:58:15   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:58:27   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=268.4054 Y=488.4631
02:58:28   (guide star SNR=24.2 X=268 Y=488)
