Licensed to Arne Henden
01:56:23 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:56:23 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:56:23   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:56:23 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:56:24 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:56:24 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:56:24 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:56:24 Dome is MaxDome
01:56:24 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:56:24 Imager is ASCOM
01:56:24 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:56:24 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240223@015334 UTC
01:56:24 Imager readout modes:
01:56:24   0 is Fast
01:56:24   1 is Normal
01:56:24 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:56:24 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:56:24 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:56:24 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:56:24 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:56:24 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:56:24 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:56:24 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:56:24 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:56:24 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:56:24 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:56:24   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:56:24   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:56:25 Pointing updates are enabled
01:56:25 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
01:56:25   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:56:26   (wait for slew to complete)
01:57:37   (slew complete)
01:57:37     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-11859s GW=T HAz=-11357s DWz=T WF=no]
01:57:37   Updating pointing...
01:57:37   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
01:57:37   (using Fast readout mode)
01:57:37   (starting exposure)
01:57:52   (exposure complete)
01:57:55   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
01:57:56   Image finished
01:57:56   Plate-solve pointing image.
01:57:57   277 image stars found
01:57:57   252 catalog stars found
01:57:58   Solved! 87 stars matched.
01:57:58   Average residual is 0.29 arcsec.
01:57:58   Pointing error is 1.129 arcmin @ angle 249.83
01:57:58   True focal length is 3467.1 mm.
01:57:58   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:57:58   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 30.1s   47° 50' 19.13"
01:57:58   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:57:58   [sync] pointing model updated
01:57:58   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:57:58   Target is now centered.
01:57:58   (high cadence option, no web previews)
01:57:58   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
01:57:58   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
01:57:58   Focus change of 50 steps required
01:58:01   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
01:58:11   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1161.549 Y=864.8409
01:58:11 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:58:12 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
01:58:24   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1027.175 Y=945.1119
01:58:25 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:58:25 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
01:58:25 **Autoguiding failed.
