02:50:30 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:50:30 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:50:30 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:50:31 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:50:31 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:50:31 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:50:31 Dome is MaxDome
02:50:31 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:50:31 Imager is ASCOM
02:50:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:50:31 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240328@024740 UTC
02:50:31 Imager readout modes:
02:50:31   0 is Fast
02:50:31   1 is Normal
02:50:31 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:50:31 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:50:31 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:50:31 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:50:31 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:50:31 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:50:31 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:50:31 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:50:31 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:50:31 ==== Starting target BX_Pup ====
02:50:31 ACPS Observation BX_Pup(1 of 1)
02:50:31   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan BX_Pup)
02:50:31   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:50:31 Pointing updates are enabled
02:50:31 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:50:31   Start slew to BX_Pup...
02:50:32   (wait for slew to complete)
02:50:52   (slew complete)

02:50:52   Updating pointing...
02:50:52   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:50:52   Focus change of 20 steps required
02:50:54   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:50:54   (using Fast readout mode)
02:50:54   (starting exposure)
02:51:11   (exposure complete)
02:51:13   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:51:14   Image finished
02:51:14   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:51:15   3228 image stars found
02:51:15   405 catalog stars found
02:51:16   Solved! 143 stars matched.
02:51:17   Average residual is 0.38 arcsec.
02:51:17   Pointing error is 1.247 arcmin @ angle 69.77
02:51:17   True focal length is 3467.1 mm.
02:51:17   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:51:17   True image center (J2000): 07h 54m 20.7s   -24° 19' 10.12"

02:51:17   [sync] pointing model updated
02:51:17   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:51:17   Target is now centered.
