02:50:39 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
02:50:39 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:50:39   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:50:39 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:50:40 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:50:40 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:50:40 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:50:40 Dome is MaxDome
02:50:41 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:50:41 Imager is ASCOM
02:50:41 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:50:41 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250224@024615 UTC
02:50:41 Imager readout modes:
02:50:41   0 is Fast
02:50:41   1 is Normal
02:50:41 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:50:41 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:50:41 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:50:41 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:50:41 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:50:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:50:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:50:48 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:50:48 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

02:51:15   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:51:15   Focus change of -320 steps required
02:51:19   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:51:19   (using Fast readout mode)
02:51:19   (starting exposure)

02:51:51   [sync] pointing model updated
02:51:51   Re-slew to target.
02:51:51   Start slew to L1022_IRS...
02:51:52   (wait for slew to complete)
02:52:02   (slew complete)
02:52:02   Target is now centered.
02:52:02   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:52:02   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
02:52:02   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
02:52:02   Focus change of 290 steps required
02:52:05   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:52:18   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=303.4458 Y=485.4827
