10:25:11 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
10:25:11 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:25:11   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:25:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:25:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
10:25:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:25:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:25:12 Dome is MaxDome
10:25:12 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:25:12 Imager is ASCOM
10:25:12 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:25:12 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250610@102437 UTC
10:25:12 Imager readout modes:
10:25:12   0 is Fast
10:25:12   1 is Normal
10:25:12 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:25:12 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:25:12 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
10:25:12 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:25:12 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:25:20 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:25:20 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:25:20 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:25:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

10:26:02   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
10:26:02   Focus change of -320 steps required
10:26:06   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
10:26:06   (using Fast readout mode)

10:26:34   156 catalog stars found
10:26:35   Solved! 46 stars matched.
10:26:35   Average residual is 0.29 arcsec.
10:26:35   Pointing error is 3.010 arcmin @ angle 137.96
10:26:35   True focal length is 3468.5 mm.

10:26:39   (wait for slew to complete)
10:26:55   (slew complete)
10:26:55   Target is now centered.
10:26:55   (high cadence option, no web previews)
10:26:55   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
10:26:55   Switching from SR to V filter for imaging
10:26:55   Focus change of 290 steps required
10:26:58   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
10:27:12   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=180 Y=708
