01:52:23 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:52:23 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:52:23   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:52:23 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:52:24 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:52:24 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:52:24 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:52:24 Dome is MaxDome
01:52:25 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:52:25 Imager is ASCOM
01:52:25 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:52:25 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240217@014857 UTC
01:52:25 Imager readout modes:
01:52:25   0 is Fast
01:52:25   1 is Normal
01:52:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:52:25 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:52:25 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:52:25 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:52:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:52:25 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:52:25 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:52:25 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:52:25 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:52:25 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:52:25 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:52:25   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:52:25   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:52:25 Pointing updates are enabled
01:52:25 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
01:52:25   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:52:27   (wait for slew to complete)
01:53:42   (slew complete)
01:53:42     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-13514s GW=T HAz=-13012s DWz=T WF=no]
01:53:42   Updating pointing...
01:53:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
01:53:42   (using Fast readout mode)
01:53:42   (starting exposure)
01:53:57   (exposure complete)
01:53:59   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
01:54:00   Image finished
01:54:00   Plate-solve pointing image.
01:54:01   284 image stars found
01:54:01   252 catalog stars found
01:54:02   Solved! 88 stars matched.
01:54:02   Average residual is 0.34 arcsec.
01:54:02   Pointing error is 1.089 arcmin @ angle 240.04
01:54:02   True focal length is 3466.7 mm.
01:54:02   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:54:02   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 30.8s   47° 50' 09.86"
01:54:02   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:54:02   [sync] pointing model updated
01:54:02   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:54:02   Target is now centered.
