Licensed to Arne Henden
02:41:09 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:41:09 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:41:09   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:41:09 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:41:10 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:41:10 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:41:10 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:41:10 Dome is MaxDome
02:41:10 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:41:10 Imager is ASCOM
02:41:10 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:41:10 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240417@023422 UTC
02:41:10 Imager readout modes:
02:41:10   0 is Fast
02:41:10   1 is Normal
02:41:10 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:41:10 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:41:10 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:41:10 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:41:10 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:41:10 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:41:10 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:41:10 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:41:10 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:41:10 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
02:41:10 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
02:41:10   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
02:41:10   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:41:10 Pointing updates are enabled
02:41:10 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:41:10   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
02:41:12   (wait for slew to complete)
02:41:43   (slew complete)
02:41:43     [flip check:  Tn=502s HAc=3570s GW=T HAz=4072s DWz=T WF=no]
02:41:43   Updating pointing...
02:41:43   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:41:43   (using Fast readout mode)
02:41:43   (starting exposure)
02:42:00   (exposure complete)
02:42:02   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:42:03   Image finished
02:42:03   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:42:04   181 image stars found
02:42:04   252 catalog stars found
02:42:05   Solved! 83 stars matched.
02:42:05   Average residual is 0.32 arcsec.
02:42:05   Pointing error is 3.090 arcmin @ angle 267.43
02:42:05   True focal length is 3467.0 mm.
02:42:05   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
02:42:05   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 18.0s   47° 50' 34.09"
02:42:05   Imager sky position angle is 178.8 deg.
02:42:05   [sync] pointing model updated
02:42:05   Re-slew to target.
02:42:05   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
02:42:07   (wait for slew to complete)
02:42:17   (slew complete)
02:42:17   Target is now centered.
02:42:17   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:42:17   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
02:42:17   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
02:42:17   Focus change of 50 steps required
02:42:19   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:42:29   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=452.0002 Y=347
02:42:30 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
02:42:30 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
02:42:43   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1325.999 Y=608.0011
02:42:43 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
02:42:43 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
02:42:43 **Autoguiding failed.
