10:32:47 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:32:47 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:32:47 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:32:49 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:32:49 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:32:49 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:32:49 Dome is MaxDome
10:32:51 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:32:51 Imager is ASCOM
10:32:51 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:32:51 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240224@103122 UTC
10:32:51 Imager readout modes:
10:32:51   0 is Fast
10:32:51   1 is Normal
10:32:51 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:32:51 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:32:51 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:32:51 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:32:51 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:32:51 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:32:51 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:32:51 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:32:51 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

10:32:51   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P211_BENS_AUTO_ver2706, Plan CG_Dra)
10:32:51   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:32:52 Pointing updates are enabled
10:32:52 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:32:52   Start slew to CG_Dra...

10:33:38   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:33:38   Focus change of -320 steps required
10:33:43   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:33:43   (using Fast readout mode)

10:34:12   Image finished
10:34:12   Plate-solve pointing image.
10:34:13   526 image stars found
10:34:13   310 catalog stars found
10:34:14   Solved! 109 stars matched.
10:34:14   Average residual is 0.34 arcsec.
10:34:14   Pointing error is 0.629 arcmin @ angle 159.95
10:34:14   True focal length is 3465.6 mm.
10:34:14   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
10:34:14   True image center (J2000): 19h 07m 34.2s   52° 57' 53.05"
10:34:14   Imager sky position angle is 179.1 deg.
10:34:14   [sync] pointing model updated
10:34:14   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
10:34:14   Target is now centered.
