This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
07:10:03 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:10:03 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:10:03   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:10:03 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:10:04 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:10:04 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:10:04 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:10:04 Dome is MaxDome
07:10:04 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:10:04 Imager is ASCOM
07:10:04 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:10:04 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240412@070815 UTC
07:10:04 Imager readout modes:
07:10:04   0 is Fast
07:10:04   1 is Normal
07:10:04 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:10:04 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:10:04 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:10:04 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:10:04 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:10:04 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:10:04 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:10:04 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:10:04 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:10:04 ==== Starting target NSV_11154 ====
07:10:04 ACPS Observation NSV_11154(1 of 1)
07:10:04   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan NSV_11154)
07:10:04   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:10:04 Pointing updates are enabled
07:10:04 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:10:04   Start slew to NSV_11154...
07:10:05   (wait for slew to complete)
07:11:00   (slew complete)

07:11:00   Updating pointing...
07:11:00   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:11:00   Focus change of -50 steps required
07:11:03   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:11:03   (using Fast readout mode)
07:11:03   (starting exposure)
07:11:24   (exposure complete)
07:11:27   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:11:28   Image finished
07:11:28   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:11:29   682 image stars found
07:11:29   352 catalog stars found
07:11:30   Solved! 134 stars matched.
07:11:30   Average residual is 0.3 arcsec.
07:11:30   Pointing error is 0.401 arcmin @ angle 172.43
07:11:30   True focal length is 3465.9 mm.
07:11:30   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:11:30   True image center (J2000): 18h 37m 51.6s   47° 22' 59.62"
07:11:30   Imager sky position angle is 179.1 deg.
07:11:30   [sync] pointing model updated
07:11:30   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:11:30   Target is now centered.
07:11:30   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:11:30   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
07:11:30   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
07:11:30   Focus change of -20 steps required
07:11:32   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
