01:53:08 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:53:08 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:53:08   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:53:08 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:53:09 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:53:09 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:53:09 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:53:09 Dome is MaxDome
01:53:09 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:53:09 Imager is ASCOM
01:53:09 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:53:09 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240219@015014 UTC
01:53:09 Imager readout modes:
01:53:09   0 is Fast
01:53:09   1 is Normal
01:53:09 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:53:09 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:53:09 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:53:10 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:53:10 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:53:10 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:53:10 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:53:10 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:53:10 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:53:10 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:53:10 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:53:10   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:53:10   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:53:10 Pointing updates are enabled
01:53:10 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
01:53:10   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:53:11   (wait for slew to complete)
01:54:27   (slew complete)
01:54:27     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-12996s GW=T HAz=-12494s DWz=T WF=no]
01:54:27   Updating pointing...
01:54:27   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
01:54:27   (using Fast readout mode)
01:54:27   (starting exposure)
01:54:42   (exposure complete)
01:54:45   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
01:54:46   Image finished
01:54:46   Plate-solve pointing image.
01:54:46   240 image stars found
01:54:46   252 catalog stars found
01:54:48   Solved! 84 stars matched.
01:54:48   Average residual is 0.3 arcsec.
01:54:48   Pointing error is 1.808 arcmin @ angle 107.60
01:54:48   True focal length is 3467.7 mm.
01:54:48   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:54:48   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 46.7s   47° 50' 09.66"
01:54:48   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:54:48   [sync] pointing model updated
01:54:48   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:54:48   Target is now centered.
01:54:48   (high cadence option, no web previews)
01:54:48   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
01:54:48   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
01:54:48   Focus change of 50 steps required
01:54:50   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
01:55:00   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1287.356 Y=882.0026
01:55:00 **No stars at all found in guider image
01:55:00 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
01:55:14   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=425.0376 Y=574.9781
01:55:14 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:55:14 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
01:55:14 **Autoguiding failed.
