Licensed to Arne Henden
03:52:06 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:52:06 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:52:06   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:52:06 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:52:07 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:52:07 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:52:07 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:52:07 Dome is MaxDome
03:52:07 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:52:07 Imager is ASCOM
03:52:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:52:08 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240507@035039 UTC
03:52:08 Imager readout modes:
03:52:08   0 is Fast
03:52:08   1 is Normal
03:52:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:52:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:52:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:52:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:52:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:52:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:52:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:52:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:52:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:52:08 ==== Starting target M5-V84 ====
03:52:08 ACPS Observation M5-V84(1 of 1)
03:52:08   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P246_KPRB_AUTO_ver3426, Plan M5-V84)
03:52:08   (turning on sidereal tracking)
03:52:08 Pointing updates are enabled
03:52:08 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
03:52:08   Start slew to M5-V84...
03:52:09   (wait for slew to complete)
03:52:19   (slew complete)
03:52:19   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)

03:52:19   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
03:52:19   Switching from V to B filter for imaging
03:52:19   Focus change of 30 steps required
03:52:22   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
03:52:35   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1328.444 Y=610.0319
03:52:36 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:52:36 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
03:52:48   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1349.587 Y=373.8714
03:52:49 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
03:52:49 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
03:52:49 **Autoguiding failed.
03:52:49   (**AG failed, but individual exposure(s) can be unguided)
