05:41:05 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:41:05 Custom image file path/names are in use

05:41:05 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:41:06 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:41:06 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:41:06 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:41:06 Dome is MaxDome
05:41:06 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:41:06 Imager is ASCOM
05:41:06 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:41:06 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20240223@053938 UTC
05:41:06 Imager readout modes:
05:41:06   0 is Fast
05:41:06   1 is Normal
05:41:06 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:41:06 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:41:06 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:41:06 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:41:06 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:41:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:41:07 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:41:07 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:41:07 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:41:07 ==== Starting target SU_Lyn ====
05:41:07 ACPS Observation SU_Lyn(1 of 1)
05:41:07   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan SU_Lyn)
05:41:07   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:41:07 Pointing updates are enabled
05:41:07 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:41:07   Start slew to SU_Lyn...
05:41:08   (wait for slew to complete)

05:42:31   Switching from R to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:42:31   Focus change of -270 steps required
05:42:35   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:42:35   (using Fast readout mode)
05:42:35   (starting exposure)
05:42:58   (exposure complete)

05:43:03   350 catalog stars found
05:43:04   Solved! 111 stars matched.
05:43:04   Average residual is 0.31 arcsec.

05:43:04   [sync] pointing model updated
05:43:04   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:43:04   Target is now centered.
