09:17:55 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
09:17:55 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:17:55   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:17:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:17:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:17:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:17:56 User actions detected.
09:17:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:17:56 Dome is MaxDome
09:17:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:17:57 Imager is ASCOM
09:17:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:17:57 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240629@091538 UTC
09:17:57 Imager readout modes:
09:17:57   0 is Fast
09:17:57   1 is Normal
09:17:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:17:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:17:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:17:57 Guider is set to multi-star mode
09:17:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:17:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:17:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:17:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:17:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:17:57 ==== Starting target FY_Aql ====
09:17:57 ACPS Observation FY_Aql(1 of 1)
09:17:57   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P192_SFRA_AUTO_ver2413, Plan FY_Aql)
09:17:57   (turning on sidereal tracking)
09:17:57 Pointing updates are enabled
09:17:57 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
09:17:57   Start slew to FY_Aql...
09:17:58   (wait for slew to complete)
09:18:23   (slew complete)
09:18:23   Calling TargetStart user action.

09:18:23   Updating pointing...
09:18:23   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
09:18:23   (using Fast readout mode)
09:18:23   (starting exposure)
09:18:37   (exposure complete)
09:18:40   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
09:18:42  PROJNAME=AAVSO_P192_SFRA_AUTO put into fits header
09:18:42  CCD-TPWR=100 put into fits header
09:18:42 Focus postion= 3570
09:18:42   Image finished
09:18:42   Plate-solve pointing image.
09:18:43   1333 image stars found
09:18:43   973 catalog stars found
09:19:02   Solved! 90 stars matched.
09:19:03   Average residual is 0.38 arcsec.
09:19:03   Pointing error is 1.484 arcmin @ angle 225.39
09:19:03   True focal length is 3462.1 mm.
09:19:03   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.90
09:19:03   True image center (J2000): 19h 27m 56.6s   03° 40' 55.94"
09:19:03   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
09:19:03   [sync] pointing model updated
09:19:03   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
09:19:03   Target is now centered.
09:19:03   (high cadence option, no web previews)
09:19:03   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
09:19:03   Switching from SR to SZ filter for imaging
09:19:03   Focus change of -50 steps required
09:19:05   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
09:19:18   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1325.819 Y=607.9797
09:19:18 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
09:19:19 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
09:19:31   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1325.958 Y=608.0671
09:19:32   (guide star SNR=48.8 X=1326 Y=608)
09:19:32   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
09:19:37 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
09:19:37 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
09:19:37 **Autoguiding failed.
