Licensed to Arne Henden
02:25:44 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.5
02:25:44 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:25:44   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:25:44 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:25:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
02:25:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:25:45 User actions detected.
02:25:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:25:45 Dome is MaxDome
02:25:45 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
02:25:46 Imager is QSI Universal
02:25:46 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:25:46 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20201014@022347 UTC
02:25:46 Imager readout modes:
02:25:46   0 is Image Quality
02:25:46 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:25:46 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:25:46 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:25:46 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:25:51 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
02:25:51 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
02:25:51 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:25:51 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:25:51 ACPS Observation M13(1 of 1)
02:25:51   (belongs to Project Messier, Plan M13)
02:25:51   (turning on sidereal tracking)
02:25:51 Pointing updates are enabled
02:25:51   Start slew to M13...
02:25:53   (wait for slew to complete)
02:27:12   (slew complete)
02:27:12   Calling TargetStart user action.
02:27:12     [flip check:  Tn=660s HAc=15024s GW=T HAz=15684s DWz=T WF=no]
02:27:12   Updating pointing...
02:27:13   Switching from R to V filter for pointing exposure
02:27:13   Focus change of 47 steps required
02:27:17   (taking 10 sec. exposure, V filter, binning = 4)
02:27:17   (using Image Quality readout mode)
02:27:19   (starting exposure)
02:27:30   (exposure complete)
02:27:37   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
02:27:38   Image finished
02:27:38   Plate-solve pointing image.
02:27:38   361 image stars found
02:27:38   156 catalog stars found
02:27:49   Solved! 25 stars matched.
02:27:49   Average residual is 0.39 arcsec.
02:27:49   Pointing error is 0.831 arcmin @ angle 354.75
02:27:49   True focal length is 3461.2 mm.
02:27:49   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 1.29 V = 1.29
02:27:49   True image center (J2000): 16h 41m 41.6s   36° 28' 49.63"
02:27:49   Imager sky position angle is 2.5 deg.
02:27:49   [sync] pointing model updated
02:27:49   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:27:49   Target is now centered.
02:27:49   (high cadence option, no web previews)
02:27:49   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
02:27:49   Switching from V to B filter for imaging
02:27:49   Focus change of 4 steps required
02:27:54   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
02:28:02   (guide star SNR=2.1 X=170 Y=48)
02:28:02   (first exposure estimate 7.28 sec)
02:28:13   (guide star SNR=2.2 X=170 Y=49)
02:28:13   (final exposure for guiding 9.84 sec)
02:28:25 **Guider unexpectedly stopped while waiting for measurement
02:28:26   (take guider image at initial interval 9.84 sec)
02:28:39 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
02:28:51 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
02:28:52 **Autoguiding failed.
