07:36:45 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:36:45 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:36:45   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:36:45 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:36:46 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:36:46 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:36:46 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:36:46 Dome is MaxDome
07:36:47 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:36:47 Imager is ASCOM
07:36:47 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:36:47 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250610@073435 UTC
07:36:47 Imager readout modes:
07:36:47   0 is Fast
07:36:47   1 is Normal
07:36:47 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:36:47 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:36:47 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:36:47 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:36:47 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:36:54 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:36:54 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:36:54 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:36:54 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

07:38:01   Start slew to MN84...
07:38:02   (wait for slew to complete)
07:38:17   (slew complete)
07:38:17   Target is now centered.

07:38:35   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=644.3708 Y=376.9993
07:38:35 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
07:38:36 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
07:38:49   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.018 Y=608.0006
07:38:49   (guide star SNR=33.3 X=1326 Y=608)
07:38:50   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
07:38:55 **No stars at all found in guider image
07:38:55 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
07:38:55 **Autoguiding failed.
