Licensed to Arne Henden
03:32:16 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:32:16 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:32:16   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:32:16 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:32:17 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:32:17 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:32:17 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:32:17 Dome is MaxDome
03:32:17 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:32:17 Imager is ASCOM
03:32:17 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:32:17 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240507@033143 UTC
03:32:17 Imager readout modes:
03:32:17   0 is Fast
03:32:17   1 is Normal
03:32:17 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:32:17 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:32:17 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:32:17 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:32:17 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:32:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:32:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:32:17 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:32:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:32:17 ==== Starting target HS1340+1524 ====
03:32:17 ACPS Observation HS1340+1524(1 of 1)
03:32:17   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan HS1340+1524)
03:32:17   (turning on sidereal tracking)
03:32:17 Pointing updates are enabled
03:32:17 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
03:32:18   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
03:32:19   (wait for slew to complete)
03:33:24   (slew complete)

03:33:24   Updating pointing...
03:33:24   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:33:24   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:33:28   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:33:28   (using Fast readout mode)
03:33:28   (starting exposure)
03:33:52   (exposure complete)
03:33:54   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:33:55   Image finished
03:33:55   Plate-solve pointing image.
03:33:56   216 image stars found
03:33:56   113 catalog stars found
03:33:58   Solved! 34 stars matched.
03:33:58   Average residual is 0.28 arcsec.
03:33:58   Pointing error is 3.564 arcmin @ angle 271.85
03:33:58   True focal length is 3472.1 mm.
03:33:58   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
03:33:58   True image center (J2000): 13h 43m 08.6s   15° 09' 22.88"
03:33:58   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
03:33:58   [sync] pointing model updated
03:33:58   Re-slew to target.
03:33:58   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
03:33:59   (wait for slew to complete)
03:34:09   (slew complete)
03:34:09   Target is now centered.
03:34:09   (high cadence option, no web previews)
03:34:09   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
03:34:09   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
03:34:09   Focus change of 290 steps required
03:34:13   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
03:34:26   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
03:34:27 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:34:27 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
03:34:39   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=912.5596 Y=458.9908
03:34:40 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:34:40 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
03:34:40 **Autoguiding failed.
