This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
05:26:03 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:26:03 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:26:03   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:26:03 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:26:04 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:26:04 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:26:04 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:26:04 Dome is MaxDome
05:26:04 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:26:04 Imager is ASCOM
05:26:04 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:26:04 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240328@052404 UTC
05:26:04 Imager readout modes:
05:26:04   0 is Fast
05:26:04   1 is Normal
05:26:04 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:26:04 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:26:04 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:26:04 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:26:04 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:26:04 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:26:04 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:26:04 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:26:04 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:26:04 ==== Starting target J072816 ====
05:26:04 ACPS Observation J072816(1 of 1)
05:26:04   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_WLP_AUTO_ver3464, Plan J072816)
05:26:04   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:26:04 Pointing updates are enabled
05:26:04 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:26:04   Start slew to J072816...
05:26:06   (wait for slew to complete)
05:26:25   (slew complete)
05:26:25     [flip check:  Tn=480s HAc=11560s GW=T HAz=12040s DWz=T WF=no]
05:26:25   Updating pointing...
05:26:25   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
05:26:25   Focus change of -320 steps required
05:26:29   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
05:26:29   (using Fast readout mode)
05:26:29   (starting exposure)
05:26:55   (exposure complete)
05:26:57   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
05:26:58   Image finished
05:26:58   Plate-solve pointing image.
05:26:59   430 image stars found
05:26:59   313 catalog stars found
05:27:00   Solved! 142 stars matched.
05:27:00   Average residual is 0.36 arcsec.
05:27:00   Pointing error is 0.592 arcmin @ angle 278.20
05:27:00   True focal length is 3468.9 mm.
05:27:00   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
05:27:00   True image center (J2000): 07h 28m 09.0s   75° 16' 20.26"
05:27:00   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
05:27:00   [sync] pointing model updated
05:27:00   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:27:00   Target is now centered.
05:27:00   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:27:00   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
05:27:00   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
05:27:00   Focus change of -20 steps required
05:27:03   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:27:17   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
05:27:17 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:27:17 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:27:30   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=49.67325 Y=63.22977
05:27:30 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:27:31 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
05:27:31 **Autoguiding failed.
