07:29:28 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:29:28 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:29:28   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:29:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:29:29 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:29:29 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:29:29 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:29:29 Dome is MaxDome
07:29:29 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:29:29 Imager is ASCOM
07:29:29 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:29:29 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250610@072759 UTC
07:29:29 Imager readout modes:
07:29:29   0 is Fast
07:29:29   1 is Normal
07:29:29 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:29:29 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:29:29 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:29:29 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:29:29 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:29:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:29:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:29:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:29:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

07:31:47   (wait for slew to complete)
07:32:02   (slew complete)
07:32:02   Target is now centered.
07:32:02   (high cadence option, no web previews)
07:32:02   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
07:32:02   Switching from SR to SI filter for imaging
07:32:02   Focus change of -20 steps required
07:32:05   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
07:32:19   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1190.108 Y=767.6843

07:33:01 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:33:01 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
07:33:01 **Autoguiding failed.
