This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:26:16 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:26:16 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:26:16   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:26:16 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:26:17 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:26:17 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:26:17 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:26:17 Dome is MaxDome
02:26:17 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:26:17 Imager is ASCOM
02:26:17 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:26:17 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240328@021827 UTC
02:26:17 Imager readout modes:
02:26:17   0 is Fast
02:26:17   1 is Normal
02:26:17 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:26:17 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:26:17 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:26:17 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:26:17 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:26:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:26:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:26:17 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:26:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:26:17 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
02:26:17 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
02:26:17   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
02:26:17   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:26:17 Pointing updates are enabled
02:26:17 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:26:17   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
02:26:19   (wait for slew to complete)
02:27:01   (slew complete)
02:27:01     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=-2047s GW=T HAz=-1544s DWz=T WF=no]
02:27:01   Updating pointing...
02:27:01   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:27:01   (using Fast readout mode)
02:27:01   (starting exposure)
02:27:17   (exposure complete)
02:27:20   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:27:21   Image finished
02:27:21   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:27:21   374 image stars found
02:27:21   252 catalog stars found
02:27:23   Solved! 113 stars matched.
02:27:23   Average residual is 0.32 arcsec.
02:27:23   Pointing error is 1.353 arcmin @ angle 89.82
02:27:23   True focal length is 3467.1 mm.
02:27:23   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:27:23   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 44.5s   47° 50' 42.74"
02:27:23   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
02:27:23   [sync] pointing model updated
02:27:23   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:27:23   Target is now centered.
02:27:23   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:27:23   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
02:27:23   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
02:27:23   Focus change of 50 steps required
02:27:26   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:27:35   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
02:27:36 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
02:27:36 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
02:27:49   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=708.6852 Y=457.0823
02:27:49 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
02:27:49 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
02:27:49 **Autoguiding failed.
