05:59:47 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
05:59:47 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:59:47   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:59:47 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:59:48 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
05:59:48 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:59:48 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:59:48 Dome is MaxDome
05:59:48 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:59:48 Imager is ASCOM
05:59:48 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:59:48 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250610@055742 UTC
05:59:48 Imager readout modes:
05:59:48   0 is Fast
05:59:48   1 is Normal
05:59:48 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:59:48 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:59:48 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
05:59:48 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:59:48 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:59:55 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:59:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:59:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:59:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

06:01:13   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
06:01:13   (using Fast readout mode)
06:01:13   (starting exposure)

06:01:29   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
06:01:29   Camera temp (deg.C) = -4.7
06:01:30   Focuser position = 3650
06:01:30   Focuser temp (deg.C) = 23.8
06:01:30   Image finished
06:01:30   Plate-solve pointing image.
06:01:31   1033 image stars found
06:01:31   973 catalog stars found
06:01:34   Solved! 108 stars matched.
06:01:34   Average residual is 0.4 arcsec.
06:01:34   Pointing error is 3.909 arcmin @ angle 130.97
06:01:34   True focal length is 3458.5 mm.
06:01:34   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.90 V = 0.90

06:01:34   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
06:01:34   [sync] pointing model updated
06:01:34   Re-slew to target.
06:01:34   Start slew to FY_Aql...
06:01:36   (wait for slew to complete)
06:01:51   (slew complete)
06:01:51   Target is now centered.
06:01:51   (high cadence option, no web previews)
06:01:51   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
06:01:51   Switching from SR to SZ filter for imaging
06:01:51   Focus change of -50 steps required
06:01:54   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
06:02:07   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=443.9906 Y=952.0839
06:02:07 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:02:08 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
06:02:21   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.013 Y=608.001
06:02:21   (guide star SNR=43.7 X=1326 Y=608)
06:02:22   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
06:02:27 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
06:02:27 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
06:02:27 **Autoguiding failed.
