Licensed to Arne Henden
07:30:44 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:30:44 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:30:44   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:30:44 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:30:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:30:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:30:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:30:45 Dome is MaxDome
07:30:45 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:30:45 Imager is ASCOM
07:30:45 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:30:45 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250605@072208 UTC
07:30:45 Imager readout modes:
07:30:45   0 is Fast
07:30:45   1 is Normal
07:30:45 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:30:45 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:30:45 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:30:45 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:30:45 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:30:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:30:52 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:30:52 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:30:52 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:30:52 ==== Starting target NGC_6626 ====
07:30:52 ACPS Observation NGC_6626(1 of 1)
07:30:52   (belongs to Project AAVSO_Pgc_Welch_AUTO_ver4538, Plan NGC_6626)
07:30:52   (turning on sidereal tracking)
07:30:53 Pointing updates are enabled
07:30:53 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
07:30:53   Start slew to NGC_6626...
07:30:54   (wait for slew to complete)
07:31:14   (slew complete)
07:31:14   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
07:31:14     [flip check:  Tn=420s HAc=-3945s GW=T HAz=-3525s DWz=T WF=no]
07:31:14   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:31:14   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
07:31:14   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:31:21   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=108.2715 Y=805.1042
07:31:22   (guide star SNR=12.3 X=108 Y=806)
07:31:22   (first exposure estimate 1.22 sec)
07:31:27   (guide star SNR=3.7 X=108 Y=806)
07:31:27   (final exposure for guiding 1 sec)
07:31:32   (guide star SNR=3.2 X=107 Y=806)
07:31:50 **Guider waited for 10 sec and never got a measurement
07:31:51   (take guider image at initial interval 1 sec)
07:31:55   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=984 Y=746
07:31:56 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:31:56 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:32:09   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.065 Y=607.852
07:32:09   (guide star SNR=35.0 X=1326 Y=608)
07:32:10   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
07:32:15 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:32:15 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
07:32:15 **Autoguiding failed.
