Licensed to Arne Henden
06:48:05 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:48:05 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:48:05   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:48:05 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:48:06 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:48:06 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:48:06 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:48:07 Dome is MaxDome
06:48:07 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:48:07 Imager is ASCOM
06:48:07 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:48:07 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240217@064709 UTC
06:48:07 Imager readout modes:
06:48:07   0 is Fast
06:48:07   1 is Normal
06:48:07 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:48:07 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:48:07 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:48:07 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:48:07 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:48:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:48:07 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:48:07 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:48:07 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:48:07 ==== Starting target HS1340+1524 ====
06:48:07 ACPS Observation HS1340+1524(1 of 1)
06:48:07   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_PYG_AUTO_ver3260, Plan HS1340+1524)
06:48:07   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:48:07 Pointing updates are enabled
06:48:07 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:48:07   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
06:48:08   (wait for slew to complete)
06:50:04   (slew complete)
06:50:04     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=-15256s GW=T HAz=-14776s DWz=T WF=no]
06:50:04   Updating pointing...
06:50:04   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
06:50:04   Focus change of 20 steps required
06:50:06   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:50:06   (using Fast readout mode)
06:50:06   (starting exposure)
06:50:24   (exposure complete)
06:50:26   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:50:27   Image finished
06:50:27   Plate-solve pointing image.
06:50:28   195 image stars found
06:50:28   113 catalog stars found
06:50:29   Solved! 30 stars matched.
06:50:30   Average residual is 0.28 arcsec.
06:50:30   Pointing error is 1.358 arcmin @ angle 263.77
06:50:30   True focal length is 3471.1 mm.
06:50:30   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
06:50:30   True image center (J2000): 13h 43m 17.8s   15° 09' 07.16"
06:50:30   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
06:50:30   [sync] pointing model updated
06:50:30   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
06:50:30   Target is now centered.
06:50:30   (high cadence option, no web previews)
06:50:30   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
06:50:30   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
06:50:30   Focus change of 290 steps required
06:50:33   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
06:50:47   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=813.0012 Y=450
06:50:47 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:50:48 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
06:51:01   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=75.31836 Y=829
06:51:01 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:51:02 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
06:51:02 **Autoguiding failed.
