10:45:21 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:45:21 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:45:21 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:45:22 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:45:22 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:45:22 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:45:22 Dome is MaxDome
10:45:22 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:45:22 Imager is ASCOM
10:45:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:45:22 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240222@104048 UTC
10:45:22 Imager readout modes:
10:45:22   0 is Fast
10:45:22   1 is Normal
10:45:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:45:22 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:45:22 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:45:22 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:45:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:45:22 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:45:22 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:45:22 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:45:22 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:45:22 ==== Starting target CG_Dra ====
10:45:22 ACPS Observation CG_Dra(1 of 1)
10:45:22   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P211_BENS_AUTO_ver2706, Plan CG_Dra)
10:45:22   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:45:22 Pointing updates are enabled
10:45:22 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0

10:45:55   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:45:55   Focus change of -290 steps required
10:45:59   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:45:59   (using Fast readout mode)
10:45:59   (starting exposure)

10:46:28   310 catalog stars found
10:46:29   Solved! 94 stars matched.
10:46:29   Average residual is 0.31 arcsec.
