Licensed to Arne Henden
01:39:55 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
01:39:55 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:39:55   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:39:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:39:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
01:39:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:39:56 User actions detected.
01:39:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:39:57 Dome is MaxDome
01:39:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:39:57 Imager is ASCOM
01:39:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:39:57 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250123@012853 UTC
01:39:57 Imager readout modes:
01:39:57   0 is Fast
01:39:57   1 is Normal
01:39:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:39:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:39:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:39:57 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:39:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:40:04 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:40:04 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:40:04 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:40:04 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:40:04 ==== Starting target KN_Lyn ====
01:40:04 ACPS Observation KN_Lyn(1 of 1)
01:40:04   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_HQA_AUTO_ver3479, Plan KN_Lyn)
01:40:04   (turning on sidereal tracking)
01:40:05 Pointing updates are enabled

01:40:05   Start slew to KN_Lyn...
01:40:06   (wait for slew to complete)
01:41:44   (slew complete)
01:41:44   Calling TargetStart user action.

01:42:04   188 image stars found
01:42:04   252 catalog stars found
01:42:05   Solved! 72 stars matched.
01:42:05   Average residual is 0.38 arcsec.
01:42:05   Pointing error is 1.819 arcmin @ angle 13.42
01:42:05   True focal length is 3464.2 mm.
01:42:05   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
01:42:05   True image center (J2000): 08h 16m 38.9s   47° 52' 28.63"
01:42:05   Imager sky position angle is 178.7 deg.
01:42:05   [sync] pointing model updated
01:42:05   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
01:42:05   Target is now centered.
01:42:05   (high cadence option, no web previews)
01:42:05   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
01:42:05   Switching from SR to SG filter for imaging
01:42:05   Focus change of 50 steps required
01:42:08   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
01:42:18   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=0 Y=0
01:42:18 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:42:19 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
01:42:32   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1033.145 Y=786.7537
01:42:32 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
01:42:33 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
01:42:33 **Autoguiding failed.
