Licensed to Arne Henden
11:07:12 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
11:07:12 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:07:12   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
11:07:12 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:07:14 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:07:14 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:07:14 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:07:14 Dome is MaxDome
11:07:14 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:07:14 Imager is ASCOM
11:07:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:07:14 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240222@110639 UTC
11:07:14 Imager readout modes:
11:07:14   0 is Fast
11:07:14   1 is Normal
11:07:14 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:07:14 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:07:14 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:07:14 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:07:14 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:07:14 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:07:14 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:07:14 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:07:14 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:07:14 ==== Starting target CH_Cyg ====
11:07:14 ACPS Observation CH_Cyg(1 of 1)
11:07:14   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_SBL_AUTO_ver3479, Plan CH_Cyg)
11:07:14   (turning on sidereal tracking)
11:07:14 Pointing updates are enabled
11:07:14 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
11:07:14   Start slew to CH_Cyg...
11:07:16   (wait for slew to complete)
11:08:10   (slew complete)

11:08:10   Updating pointing...
11:08:10   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
11:08:10   Focus change of -290 steps required
11:08:14   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
11:08:14   (using Fast readout mode)
11:08:14   (starting exposure)
11:08:39   (exposure complete)
11:08:42   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
11:08:43   Image finished
11:08:43   Plate-solve pointing image.
11:08:44   655 image stars found
11:08:44   334 catalog stars found
11:08:45   Solved! 103 stars matched.
11:08:45   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
11:08:45   Pointing error is 0.473 arcmin @ angle 214.84
11:08:45   True focal length is 3465.1 mm.
11:08:45   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
11:08:45   True image center (J2000): 19h 24m 31.4s   50° 14' 05.82"
11:08:45   Imager sky position angle is 179.1 deg.
11:08:45   [sync] pointing model updated
11:08:45   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
11:08:45   Target is now centered.
