11:41:37 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
11:41:37 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:41:37   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
11:41:37 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:41:38 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:41:38 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:41:38 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:41:38 Dome is MaxDome
11:41:38 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:41:38 Imager is ASCOM
11:41:38 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:41:38 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240223@114029 UTC
11:41:38 Imager readout modes:
11:41:38   0 is Fast
11:41:38   1 is Normal
11:41:38 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:41:38 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:41:38 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:41:38 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:41:38 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:41:38 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:41:38 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:41:38 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:41:38 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:41:38 ==== Starting target M56_V6 ====
11:41:38 ACPS Observation M56_V6(1 of 1)
11:41:38   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan M56_V6)
11:41:38   (turning on sidereal tracking)
11:41:38 Pointing updates are enabled
11:41:38 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
11:41:38   Start slew to M56_V6...
11:41:40   (wait for slew to complete)
11:43:05   (slew complete)
11:43:05     [flip check:  Tn=660s HAc=-16184s GW=T HAz=-15524s DWz=T WF=no]
11:43:05   Updating pointing...
11:43:05   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
11:43:05   (using Fast readout mode)
11:43:05   (starting exposure)
11:43:20   (exposure complete)
11:43:22   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
11:43:24   Image finished
11:43:24   Plate-solve pointing image.
11:43:24   944 image stars found
11:43:24   357 catalog stars found
11:43:26   Solved! 139 stars matched.
11:43:26   Average residual is 0.33 arcsec.
11:43:26   Pointing error is 1.065 arcmin @ angle 241.33
11:43:26   True focal length is 3466.7 mm.
11:43:26   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
11:43:26   True image center (J2000): 19h 16m 31.2s   30° 10' 33.54"
11:43:26   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
11:43:26   [sync] pointing model updated
11:43:26   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
11:43:26   Target is now centered.
11:43:26   (high cadence option, no web previews)
11:43:26   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
11:43:26   Switching from SR to B filter for imaging
11:43:26   Focus change of 320 steps required
11:43:29   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
11:43:42   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=645.0355 Y=377.0138
11:43:43 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
11:43:43 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
11:43:56   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1112.377 Y=272.9279
11:43:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
11:43:56 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
11:43:56 **Autoguiding failed.
