05:59:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:59:32 Custom image file path/names are in use

05:59:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:59:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:59:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:59:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:59:33 Dome is MaxDome
05:59:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:59:33 Imager is ASCOM
05:59:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:59:33 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240224@055754 UTC
05:59:33 Imager readout modes:
05:59:33   0 is Fast
05:59:33   1 is Normal
05:59:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:59:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:59:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:59:33 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:59:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:59:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:59:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:59:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:59:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

05:59:33 ACPS Observation J072816(1 of 1)
05:59:33   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_WLP_AUTO_ver3464, Plan J072816)
05:59:33   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:59:33 Pointing updates are enabled
05:59:33 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:59:33   Start slew to J072816...
05:59:35   (wait for slew to complete)
06:01:01   (slew complete)

06:01:01   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
06:01:01   Focus change of -290 steps required
06:01:04   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:01:04   (using Fast readout mode)
06:01:04   (starting exposure)
06:01:29   (exposure complete)
06:01:31   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:01:32   Image finished
06:01:32   Plate-solve pointing image.
06:01:33   414 image stars found
06:01:33   313 catalog stars found
06:01:35   Solved! 118 stars matched.
06:01:35   Average residual is 0.36 arcsec.
06:01:35   Pointing error is 0.428 arcmin @ angle 112.68
06:01:35   True focal length is 3468.7 mm.
06:01:35   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
06:01:35   True image center (J2000): 07h 28m 24.5s   75° 16' 05.29"

06:01:35   [sync] pointing model updated
06:01:35   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
06:01:35   Target is now centered.
