05:31:03 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
05:31:03 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:31:03   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:31:03 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:31:04 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
05:31:04 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:31:04 User actions detected.
05:31:04 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:31:04 Dome is MaxDome
05:31:04 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:31:04 Imager is ASCOM
05:31:04 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:31:04 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250614@053027 UTC
05:31:04 Imager readout modes:
05:31:04   0 is Fast
05:31:04   1 is Normal
05:31:04 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:31:04 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:31:04 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
05:31:04 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:31:04 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:31:11 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:31:11 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:31:11 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:31:11 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:31:11 ==== Starting target NGC_6144 ====
05:31:11 ACPS Observation NGC_6144(1 of 1)
05:31:11   (belongs to Project AAVSO_MISC_Welch_AUTO_ver5271, Plan NGC_6144)
05:31:11   (turning on sidereal tracking)
05:31:12 Pointing updates are enabled
05:31:12 Catalog Maximum Mag = 18.0
05:31:12   Start slew to NGC_6144...
05:31:13   (wait for slew to complete)
05:31:34   (slew complete)
05:31:34   Calling TargetStart user action.
05:31:34 Project Priority is: undefined
05:31:34   (skipping pointing update, last target close enough)
05:31:34     [flip check:  Tn=420s HAc=-1977s GW=T HAz=-1557s DWz=T WF=no]
05:31:34   (high cadence option, no web previews)
05:31:34   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
05:31:34   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
05:31:41   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.026 Y=607.9605
05:31:42 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:31:42 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
05:31:54   Multi-star guiding, MaxIm chose star at X=1326.018 Y=607.9987
05:31:55   (guide star SNR=36.0 X=1326 Y=608)
05:31:55   (first exposure estimate 1 sec)
05:32:00 ** This guide star disappeared or moved > 20 pixels. Can't continue.
05:32:00 **No usable stars this time, must be extremely weak, giving up.
05:32:00 **Autoguiding failed.
