Licensed to Arne Henden
10:42:04 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:42:04 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:42:04   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:42:04 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:42:05 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:42:05 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:42:05 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:42:05 Dome is MaxDome
10:42:05 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:42:05 Imager is ASCOM
10:42:05 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:42:05 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240328@103909 UTC
10:42:05 Imager readout modes:
10:42:05   0 is Fast
10:42:05   1 is Normal
10:42:05 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:42:05 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:42:06 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:42:06 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:42:06 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:42:06 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:42:06 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:42:06 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:42:06 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:42:06 ==== Starting target NGC_6287 ====
10:42:06 ACPS Observation NGC_6287(1 of 1)
10:42:06   (belongs to Project AAVSO_Pgc_Welch_AUTO_ver2411, Plan NGC_6287)
10:42:06   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:42:06 Pointing updates are enabled
10:42:06 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:42:06   Start slew to NGC_6287...
10:42:07   (wait for slew to complete)
10:42:17   (slew complete)
10:42:17   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)

10:42:17   Imaging to NGC_6287_SG_20240328_104217_T3
10:42:17   (taking 60 sec. exposure, SG filter, binning = 2)
10:42:17   (using Normal readout mode)
10:42:17   (starting exposure)
10:43:23   (exposure complete)
10:43:26   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
10:43:27   Image finished
10:43:27   Plate-solve NGC_6287_SG_20240328_104217_T3 final image.
10:43:30   2468 image stars found
10:43:30   84 catalog stars found
10:43:35 ** No matching stars found. Check your estimated center-point RA/Dec, and your image scaling and quality.
10:43:35   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:43:35   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
10:43:35   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:43:43   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=206.9949 Y=659.663

10:44:09   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1040.014 Y=308.0775
10:44:10 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
10:44:10 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
10:44:23   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=32.32367 Y=416.9348
10:44:23 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
10:44:24 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
10:44:24 **Autoguiding failed.
