10:47:53 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:47:53 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:47:53 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:47:54 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:47:54 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:47:54 User actions detected.
10:47:54 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:47:54 Dome is MaxDome
10:47:55 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:47:55 Imager is ASCOM
10:47:55 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:47:55 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240710@104659 UTC
10:47:55 Imager readout modes:
10:47:55   0 is Fast
10:47:55   1 is Normal
10:47:55 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:47:55 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:47:55 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:47:55 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:47:55 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:47:55 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:47:55 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:47:55 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:47:55 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

10:47:55   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver3479, Plan V1412_Aql)
10:47:55   (turning on sidereal tracking)
10:47:55 Pointing updates are enabled
10:47:55 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
10:47:55   Start slew to V1412_Aql...

10:48:41   288 catalog stars found
10:48:42   Solved! 90 stars matched.
10:48:42   Average residual is 0.25 arcsec.
10:48:42   Pointing error is 1.523 arcmin @ angle 57.85
10:48:42   True focal length is 3465.2 mm.

10:48:42   [sync] pointing model updated
10:48:42   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
10:48:42   Target is now centered.
