07:16:18 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:16:18 Custom image file path/names are in use

07:16:18 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:16:19 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:16:19 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:16:19 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:16:19 Dome is MaxDome
07:16:20 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:16:20 Imager is ASCOM
07:16:20 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:16:20 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240217@071544 UTC
07:16:20 Imager readout modes:
07:16:20   0 is Fast
07:16:20   1 is Normal
07:16:20 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:16:20 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:16:20 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:16:20 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:16:20 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:16:20 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:16:20 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:16:20 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:16:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:16:20 ==== Starting target OI_158 ====
07:16:20 ACPS Observation OI_158(1 of 1)
07:16:20   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_GCO_AUTO_ver2706, Plan OI_158)
07:16:20   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:16:20 Pointing updates are enabled
07:16:20 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:16:20   Start slew to OI_158...
07:16:22   (wait for slew to complete)
07:17:06   (slew complete)

07:17:06   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:17:06   Focus change of -290 steps required
07:17:10   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:17:10   (using Fast readout mode)
07:17:10   (starting exposure)
07:17:35   (exposure complete)
07:17:37   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:17:38   Image finished
07:17:38   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:17:38   834 image stars found
07:17:39   440 catalog stars found
07:17:40   Solved! 193 stars matched.
07:17:40   Average residual is 0.26 arcsec.
07:17:40   Pointing error is 1.181 arcmin @ angle 87.47
07:17:40   True focal length is 3467.2 mm.
07:17:40   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:17:40   True image center (J2000): 07h 38m 12.4s   17° 42' 22.13"
07:17:40   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
07:17:40   [sync] pointing model updated
07:17:40   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:17:40   Target is now centered.
