This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:40:01 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:40:01 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:40:01   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:40:01 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:40:02 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:40:02 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:40:02 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:40:03 Dome is MaxDome
02:40:03 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:40:03 Imager is ASCOM
02:40:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:40:03 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240221@023742 UTC
02:40:03 Imager readout modes:
02:40:03   0 is Fast
02:40:03   1 is Normal
02:40:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:40:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:40:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:40:03 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:40:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:40:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:40:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:40:03 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:40:03 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:40:03 ==== Starting target V1647_Ori ====
02:40:03 ACPS Observation V1647_Ori(1 of 1)
02:40:03   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan V1647_Ori)
02:40:03   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:40:03 Pointing updates are enabled
02:40:03 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:40:03   Start slew to V1647_Ori...
02:40:04   (wait for slew to complete)
02:41:00   (slew complete)
02:41:00     [flip check:  Tn=660s HAc=-668s GW=T HAz=-8s DWz=T WF=no]
02:41:00   Updating pointing...
02:41:00   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:41:00   Focus change of 20 steps required
02:41:02   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:41:02   (using Fast readout mode)
02:41:02   (starting exposure)
02:41:19   (exposure complete)
02:41:21   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:41:22   Image finished
02:41:22   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:41:23   270 image stars found
02:41:23   147 catalog stars found
02:41:24   Solved! 34 stars matched.
02:41:24   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
02:41:24   Pointing error is 1.464 arcmin @ angle 70.49
02:41:24   True focal length is 3468.1 mm.
02:41:24   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:41:24   True image center (J2000): 05h 46m 18.6s   -00° 05' 35.47"
02:41:24   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
02:41:24   [sync] pointing model updated
02:41:24   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:41:24   Target is now centered.
02:41:24   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:41:24   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
02:41:25   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
02:41:25   Focus change of 290 steps required
02:41:29   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:41:42   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1085.791 Y=957.004
02:41:43 **No stars at all found in guider image
02:41:43 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
02:41:56   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=547.408 Y=449
02:41:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
02:41:56 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
02:41:56 **Autoguiding failed.
