This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
09:51:49 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
09:51:49 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:51:49   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:51:49 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:51:50 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:51:50 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:51:50 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:51:50 Dome is MaxDome
09:51:50 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:51:50 Imager is ASCOM
09:51:50 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:51:50 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240223@094941 UTC
09:51:50 Imager readout modes:
09:51:50   0 is Fast
09:51:50   1 is Normal
09:51:50 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:51:50 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:51:50 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:51:50 Guider is set to multi-star mode
09:51:50 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:51:50 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:51:50 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:51:50 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:51:50 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:51:50 ==== Starting target X_Ser ====
09:51:50 ACPS Observation X_Ser(1 of 1)
09:51:50   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan X_Ser)
09:51:50   (turning on sidereal tracking)
09:51:50 Pointing updates are enabled
09:51:50 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
09:51:50   (X_Ser within tolerance, no slew needed)
09:51:50   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
09:51:50     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=-12263s GW=T HAz=-11779s DWz=T WF=no]
09:51:50   (high cadence option, no web previews)
09:51:50   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
09:51:50   Switching from B to V filter for imaging
09:51:50   Focus change of -30 steps required
09:51:53   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
