This is ACP version 9.2 (build 1, ACP 9.2.1 (Production))
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:28:15 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
02:28:15 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:28:15   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:28:15 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:28:16 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:28:16 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:28:16 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:28:16 Dome is MaxDome
02:28:16 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:28:16 Imager is ASCOM
02:28:16 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:28:16 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250224@022702 UTC
02:28:16 Imager readout modes:
02:28:16   0 is Fast
02:28:16   1 is Normal
02:28:16 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:28:16 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:28:16 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:28:16 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:28:16 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:28:23 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:28:23 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:28:23 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:28:23 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:28:23 ==== Starting target DG_Tau ====
02:28:23 ACPS Observation DG_Tau(1 of 1)
02:28:23   (belongs to Project AAVSO_P594_OCHB_AUTO_ver5095, Plan DG_Tau__1)
02:28:23   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:28:24 Pointing updates are enabled
02:28:24 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
02:28:24   (DG_Tau within tolerance, no slew needed)
02:28:24   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
02:28:24     [flip check:  Tn=600s HAc=4189s GW=T HAz=4794s DWz=T WF=no]
02:28:24   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:28:24   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
