07:09:00 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:09:00 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:09:00   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:09:00 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:09:01 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:09:01 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:09:01 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:09:01 Dome is MaxDome
07:09:01 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:09:01 Imager is ASCOM
07:09:01 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:09:01 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250524@070639 UTC
07:09:01 Imager readout modes:
07:09:01   0 is Fast
07:09:01   1 is Normal
07:09:01 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:09:01 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:09:01 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:09:01 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:09:01 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:09:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:09:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:09:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:09:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:09:08 ==== Starting target HS1340+1524 ====
07:09:08 ACPS Observation HS1340+1524(1 of 1)
07:09:08   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_PYG_AUTO_ver3260, Plan HS1340+1524)
07:09:08   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:09:09 Pointing updates are enabled
07:09:09 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:09:09   Start slew to HS1340+1524...
07:09:10   (wait for slew to complete)
07:09:50   (slew complete)

07:09:50   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:09:50   Focus change of -50 steps required
07:09:53   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:09:53   (using Fast readout mode)
07:09:53   (starting exposure)
07:10:12   (exposure complete)
07:10:15   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
07:10:15   Camera temp (deg.C) = -8.1
07:10:16   Focuser position = 3384
07:10:16   Focuser temp (deg.C) = 23.1
07:10:16   Image finished
07:10:16   Plate-solve pointing image.
07:10:17   110 image stars found
07:10:17   113 catalog stars found
07:10:20   Solved! 11 stars matched.
07:10:20   Average residual is 0.41 arcsec.
07:10:20   Pointing error is 0.856 arcmin @ angle 288.32
07:10:20   True focal length is 3486.1 mm.
07:10:20   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.89 V = 0.89
07:10:21   True image center (J2000): 13h 43m 20.0s   15° 09' 32.15"
07:10:21   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
07:10:21   [sync] pointing model updated
07:10:21   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
07:10:21   Target is now centered.
07:10:21   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:10:21   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
07:10:21   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
07:10:21   Focus change of 290 steps required
07:10:25   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:10:38   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=859.0016 Y=830.9972
07:10:39 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:10:39 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:10:52   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1325.851 Y=608.0153
07:10:52 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:10:52 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
07:10:52 **Autoguiding failed.
