05:17:11 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:17:11 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:17:11   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:17:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:17:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:17:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:17:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:17:12 Dome is MaxDome
05:17:13 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:17:13 Imager is ASCOM
05:17:13 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:17:13 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240328@051607 UTC
05:17:13 Imager readout modes:
05:17:13   0 is Fast
05:17:13   1 is Normal
05:17:13 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:17:13 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:17:13 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:17:13 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:17:13 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:17:13 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:17:13 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:17:13 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:17:13 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:17:13 ==== Starting target IR_Com ====
05:17:13 ACPS Observation IR_Com(1 of 1)
05:17:13   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan IR_Com)
05:17:13   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:17:13 Pointing updates are enabled
05:17:13 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:17:13   Start slew to IR_Com...
05:17:14   (wait for slew to complete)
05:18:09   (slew complete)
05:18:09     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=-7495s GW=T HAz=-6895s DWz=T WF=no]
05:18:09   Updating pointing...
05:18:09   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:18:09   (using Fast readout mode)
05:18:09   (starting exposure)
05:18:25   (exposure complete)
05:18:28   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
05:18:29   Image finished
05:18:29   Plate-solve pointing image.
05:18:29   188 image stars found
05:18:30   151 catalog stars found
05:18:31   Solved! 41 stars matched.
05:18:31   Average residual is 0.37 arcsec.
05:18:31   Pointing error is 1.439 arcmin @ angle 79.00
05:18:31   True focal length is 3467.7 mm.
05:18:31   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
05:18:31   True image center (J2000): 12h 39m 38.2s   21° 08' 22.86"
05:18:31   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
05:18:31   [sync] pointing model updated
05:18:31   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:18:31   Target is now centered.
05:18:31   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:18:31   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:18:31   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
05:18:31   Focus change of 270 steps required
05:18:34   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:18:48   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=509 Y=301
05:18:49 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:18:49 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:19:01   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=723.0289 Y=913.1166
05:19:02 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:19:02 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:19:02 **Autoguiding failed.
