06:31:11 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
06:31:11 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:31:11   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:31:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:31:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
06:31:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:31:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:31:12 Dome is MaxDome
06:31:12 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:31:12 Imager is ASCOM
06:31:12 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:31:12 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250605@062853 UTC
06:31:12 Imager readout modes:
06:31:12   0 is Fast
06:31:12   1 is Normal
06:31:12 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:31:12 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:31:12 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
06:31:12 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:31:12 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:31:19 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:31:19 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:31:19 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:31:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:31:20 ==== Starting target NGC_6293 ====
06:31:20 ACPS Observation NGC_6293(1 of 1)
06:31:20   (belongs to Project AAVSO_Pgc_Welch_AUTO_ver4538, Plan NGC_6293)
06:31:20   (turning on sidereal tracking)
06:31:20 Pointing updates are enabled
06:31:20 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
06:31:20   Start slew to NGC_6293...
06:31:21   (wait for slew to complete)
06:31:41   (slew complete)
06:31:41   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
06:31:41     [flip check:  Tn=420s HAc=-3066s GW=T HAz=-2646s DWz=T WF=no]
06:31:41   (high cadence option, no web previews)
06:31:41   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
06:31:41   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
06:31:48   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1159.119 Y=784.1066
06:31:49   (guide star SNR=13.3 X=1159 Y=784)
06:31:49   (first exposure estimate 1.13 sec)
06:31:54   (guide star SNR=3.3 X=1158 Y=784)
06:31:54   (final exposure for guiding 1.03 sec)
06:31:59   (guide star SNR=3.3 X=1157 Y=784)
06:32:12 **Guider waited for 10 sec and never got a measurement
06:32:13   (take guider image at initial interval 1.03 sec)
06:32:17   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=859.0029 Y=830.9796
06:32:18 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:32:18 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
06:32:31   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.1 Y=608.0703
06:32:31   (guide star SNR=21.7 X=1326 Y=608)
06:32:32   (first exposure estimate 1.39 sec)
06:32:37 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:32:37 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
06:32:37 **Autoguiding failed.
