06:49:28 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:49:28 Custom image file path/names are in use

06:49:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:49:29 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:49:29 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:49:29 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:49:29 Dome is MaxDome
06:49:29 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:49:29 Imager is ASCOM
06:49:29 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:49:29 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240222@064724 UTC
06:49:29 Imager readout modes:
06:49:29   0 is Fast
06:49:29   1 is Normal
06:49:29 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:49:29 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:49:29 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:49:29 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:49:29 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:49:29 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:49:29 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:49:29 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:49:29 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:49:29 ==== Starting target U_Leo ====
06:49:29 ACPS Observation U_Leo(1 of 1)
06:49:29   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_SFY_AUTO_ver2706, Plan U_Leo)
06:49:29   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:49:29 Pointing updates are enabled
06:49:29 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:49:29   Start slew to U_Leo...
06:49:31   (wait for slew to complete)
06:50:08   (slew complete)

06:50:08   Updating pointing...
06:50:08   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:50:08   (using Fast readout mode)
06:50:08   (starting exposure)
06:50:23   (exposure complete)
06:50:26   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:50:27   Image finished
06:50:27   Plate-solve pointing image.
06:50:28   146 image stars found
06:50:28   150 catalog stars found
06:50:29   Solved! 47 stars matched.
06:50:29   Average residual is 0.34 arcsec.
06:50:29   Pointing error is 3.316 arcmin @ angle 273.58
06:50:29   True focal length is 3464.6 mm.
06:50:29   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
