Licensed to Arne Henden
02:34:58 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:34:58 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:34:58   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:34:58 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:34:59 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:34:59 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:34:59 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:34:59 Dome is MaxDome
02:34:59 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:34:59 Imager is ASCOM
02:34:59 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:34:59 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240311@023351 UTC
02:34:59 Imager readout modes:
02:34:59   0 is Fast
02:34:59   1 is Normal
02:34:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:34:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:34:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:34:59 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:34:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:34:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:34:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:34:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:34:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:34:59 ==== Starting target J072816 ====
02:34:59 ACPS Observation J072816(1 of 1)
02:34:59   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan J072816)
02:34:59   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:34:59 Pointing updates are enabled
02:34:59 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:34:59   Start slew to J072816...
02:35:01   (wait for slew to complete)
02:36:01   (slew complete)

02:36:01   Updating pointing...
02:36:01   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:36:01   Focus change of 20 steps required
02:36:03   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:36:03   (using Fast readout mode)
02:36:03   (starting exposure)
02:36:21   (exposure complete)
02:36:24   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:36:25   Image finished
02:36:25   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:36:26   462 image stars found
02:36:26   313 catalog stars found
02:36:27   Solved! 132 stars matched.
02:36:27   Average residual is 0.35 arcsec.
02:36:27   Pointing error is 1.130 arcmin @ angle 239.12
02:36:27   True focal length is 3468.5 mm.
02:36:27   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:36:27   True image center (J2000): 07h 28m 03.0s   75° 15' 40.36"
02:36:27   Imager sky position angle is 178.6 deg.
02:36:27   [sync] pointing model updated
02:36:27   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:36:27   Target is now centered.
02:36:27   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:36:27   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
02:36:27   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
