Licensed to Arne Henden
04:46:49 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:46:49 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:46:49   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:46:49 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:46:50 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:46:50 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:46:50 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:46:50 Dome is MaxDome
04:46:50 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:46:50 Imager is ASCOM
04:46:50 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:46:50 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20240311@044618 UTC
04:46:50 Imager readout modes:
04:46:50   0 is Fast
04:46:50   1 is Normal
04:46:50 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:46:50 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:46:50 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:46:50 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:46:50 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:46:50 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:46:50 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:46:50 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:46:50 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:46:50 ==== Starting target GZ_Cnc ====
04:46:50 ACPS Observation GZ_Cnc(1 of 1)
04:46:50   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan GZ_Cnc)
04:46:50   (turning on sidereal tracking)
04:46:50 Pointing updates are enabled
04:46:50 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
04:46:50   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
04:46:52   (wait for slew to complete)

04:47:42   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
04:47:42   No focus change required
04:47:42   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
04:47:42   (using Fast readout mode)
04:47:42   (starting exposure)
04:48:03   (exposure complete)
04:48:05   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
04:48:06   Image finished
04:48:06   Plate-solve pointing image.
04:48:07   314 image stars found
04:48:07   127 catalog stars found
04:48:08   Solved! 55 stars matched.
04:48:08   Average residual is 0.4 arcsec.

04:48:08   Start slew to GZ_Cnc...
04:48:10   (wait for slew to complete)
04:48:20   (slew complete)
04:48:20   Target is now centered.
04:48:20   (high cadence option, no web previews)
04:48:20   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
04:48:20   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
04:48:20   Focus change of 290 steps required
