05:20:51 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:20:52 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
05:20:52 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:20:52 User actions detected.
05:20:52 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:20:52 Dome is MaxDome
05:20:52 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:20:52 Imager is ASCOM
05:20:52 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:20:52 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250614@052025 UTC
05:20:52 Imager readout modes:
05:20:52   0 is Fast
05:20:52   1 is Normal
05:20:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:20:52 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:20:52 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
05:20:52 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:20:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:21:00 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:21:00 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:21:00 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:21:00 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

05:22:32   Imager sky position angle is 179.0 deg.
05:22:32   [sync] pointing model updated
05:22:32   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
05:22:32   Target is now centered.
05:22:32   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:22:32   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
05:22:32   Switching from SR to SZ filter for imaging

05:22:48   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=51.04151 Y=65.01141
05:22:49 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:22:49 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:23:01   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.019 Y=607.9999
05:23:02   (guide star SNR=51.9 X=1326 Y=608)
05:23:02   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
05:23:07 **No stars at all found in guider image
05:23:07 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
05:23:07 **Autoguiding failed.
