04:24:19 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:24:19 Custom image file path/names are in use

04:24:19 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:24:20 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:24:20 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:24:20 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:24:20 Dome is MaxDome
04:24:21 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:24:21 Imager is ASCOM
04:24:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:24:21 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240223@042000 UTC
04:24:21 Imager readout modes:
04:24:21   0 is Fast
04:24:21   1 is Normal
04:24:21 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:24:21 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:24:21 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:24:21 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:24:21 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:24:21 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:24:21 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:24:21 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:24:21 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:24:21 ==== Starting target QZ_Aur ====
04:24:21 ACPS Observation QZ_Aur(1 of 1)
04:24:21   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan QZ_Aur)
04:24:21   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:24:21 Pointing updates are enabled
04:24:21 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:24:21   Start slew to QZ_Aur...
04:24:22   (wait for slew to complete)
04:25:08   (slew complete)

04:25:08   Updating pointing...
04:25:08   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:25:08   Focus change of -320 steps required
04:25:12   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:25:12   (using Fast readout mode)
04:25:12   (starting exposure)
04:25:37   (exposure complete)
04:25:40   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
04:25:41   Image finished
04:25:41   Plate-solve pointing image.
04:25:42   1733 image stars found
04:25:42   486 catalog stars found
04:25:43   Solved! 218 stars matched.
04:25:43   Average residual is 0.28 arcsec.
