11:15:19 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
11:15:19 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:15:19   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
11:15:19 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:15:20 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:15:20 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:15:20 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:15:20 Dome is MaxDome
11:15:20 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:15:20 Imager is ASCOM
11:15:20 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:15:20 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240219@111138 UTC
11:15:20 Imager readout modes:
11:15:20   0 is Fast
11:15:20   1 is Normal
11:15:20 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:15:20 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:15:20 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:15:20 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:15:20 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:15:20 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:15:20 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:15:20 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:15:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:15:20 ==== Starting target X_Ser ====
11:15:20 ACPS Observation X_Ser(1 of 1)
11:15:20   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_MRV_AUTO_ver3136, Plan X_Ser)
11:15:20   (turning on sidereal tracking)
11:15:20 Pointing updates are enabled
11:15:20 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
11:15:20   Start slew to X_Ser...
11:15:22   (wait for slew to complete)
11:15:36   (slew complete)
11:15:36   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
11:15:36     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=-8165s GW=T HAz=-7565s DWz=T WF=no]
11:15:36   (high cadence option, no web previews)
11:15:36   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
11:15:36   Switching from SG to B filter for imaging
11:15:36   Focus change of 270 steps required
11:15:40   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
11:15:52   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=88.21811 Y=331.3892
11:15:53   (guide star SNR=19.4 X=88 Y=331)
11:15:53   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
11:15:57   (guide star SNR=4.8 X=88 Y=330)
11:15:58   (final exposure for guiding 1 sec)
11:16:03   (guide star SNR=4.8 X=87 Y=330)
11:16:09   (autoguiding at 1.00 sec.)

11:16:09   Imaging to X_Ser_B_20240219_111609_T3
11:16:09   (taking 240 sec. exposure, B filter, binning = 2)
11:16:09   (using Normal readout mode)
11:16:11   (ex=1.56 ey=0.08)
11:16:11   (guider check OK)
11:16:11   (starting exposure)
11:20:22   (exposure complete)
11:20:24   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
11:20:26   Image finished
11:20:27   Plate-solve X_Ser_B_20240219_111609_T3 final image.
11:20:30   1670 image stars found
11:20:30   91 catalog stars found
11:20:35   Solved! 35 stars matched.
11:20:36   Average residual is 0.2 arcsec.
11:20:36   Pointing error is 1.554 arcmin @ angle 86.57
11:20:36   (pointing corrector updated with this observation)
11:20:36   True focal length is 3471.9 mm.
11:20:36   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.45 V = 0.45
11:20:36   True image center (J2000): 16h 19m 23.9s   -02° 29' 24.02"
11:20:36   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
11:20:36   Image FWHM is 3.1 arcsec (6.96 pixels)
11:20:36   (avg FWHM = 2.42 arcsec)
11:20:36   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
11:20:36   (waiting for guider to settle...)

11:20:41   (taking 240 sec. exposure, B filter, binning = 2)
11:20:41   (using Normal readout mode)
11:20:41   (ex=0.00 ey=0.00)
11:20:41   (guider error n/a or too high, try #1)
11:20:53 **Guider waited for 10 sec and never got a measurement
11:20:54 **Guider stopped or lost star just before image acquisition
