Licensed to Arne Henden
05:50:28 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:50:28 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:50:28   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:50:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:50:30 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:50:30 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:50:30 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:50:30 Dome is MaxDome
05:50:30 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:50:30 Imager is ASCOM
05:50:30 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:50:30 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240223@054625 UTC
05:50:30 Imager readout modes:
05:50:30   0 is Fast
05:50:30   1 is Normal
05:50:30 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:50:30 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:50:30 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:50:30 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:50:30 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:50:30 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:50:30 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:50:30 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:50:30 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:50:30 ==== Starting target J072816 ====
05:50:30 ACPS Observation J072816(1 of 1)
05:50:30   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_WLP_AUTO_ver3464, Plan J072816)
05:50:30   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:50:30 Pointing updates are enabled
05:50:30 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:50:30   Start slew to J072816...
05:50:32   (wait for slew to complete)
05:51:28   (slew complete)
05:51:28     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=5022s GW=T HAz=5502s DWz=T WF=no]
05:51:28   Updating pointing...
05:51:28   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:51:28   Focus change of -290 steps required
05:51:32   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:51:32   (using Fast readout mode)
05:51:32   (starting exposure)
05:51:57   (exposure complete)
05:52:00   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
05:52:01   Image finished
05:52:01   Plate-solve pointing image.
05:52:02   337 image stars found
05:52:02   313 catalog stars found
05:52:03   Solved! 109 stars matched.
05:52:03   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
05:52:03   Pointing error is 1.064 arcmin @ angle 254.10
05:52:03   True focal length is 3469.4 mm.
05:52:03   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
05:52:03   True image center (J2000): 07h 28m 02.2s   75° 15' 57.68"
05:52:03   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
05:52:03   [sync] pointing model updated
05:52:03   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:52:03   Target is now centered.
05:52:03   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:52:03   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
05:52:03   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
05:52:03   Focus change of -20 steps required
05:52:05   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:52:19   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=451.9913 Y=347.277
05:52:20 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:52:20 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:52:33   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1024.055 Y=939.9768
05:52:34 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:52:34 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:52:34 **Autoguiding failed.
