11:46:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:46:27 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
11:46:27 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:46:27 User actions detected.
11:46:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:46:28 Dome is MaxDome
11:46:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
11:46:28 Imager is QSI Universal
11:46:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:46:28 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20201201@114342 UTC
11:46:28 Imager readout modes:
11:46:28   0 is Image Quality
11:46:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:46:28 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
11:46:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:46:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:46:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
11:46:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
11:46:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:46:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:46:33 ACPS Observation M98(1 of 1)
11:46:33   (belongs to Project Messier, Plan M98)
11:46:33   (turning on sidereal tracking)

11:47:41   (taking 10 sec. exposure, V filter, binning = 4)
11:47:41   (using Image Quality readout mode)
11:47:43   (starting exposure)

11:48:02   Image finished
11:48:02   Plate-solve pointing image.
11:48:02   12 image stars found
11:48:02   24 catalog stars found
11:48:02 ** No matching stars found. Check your estimated center-point RA/Dec, and your image scaling and quality.
11:48:02   Start slew to offset...
11:48:04   (wait for slew to complete)
11:48:13   (slew complete)
11:48:13   (taking 10 sec. exposure, V filter, binning = 4)

11:48:34   28 catalog stars found
11:48:35   Solved! 11 stars matched.
11:48:35   Average residual is 0.41 arcsec.
11:48:35   Pointing error is 0.340 arcmin @ angle 115.40
11:48:35   True focal length is 3451.3 mm.
11:48:35   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 1.29 V = 1.29

11:48:35   Start slew to M98...
11:48:36   (wait for slew to complete)
11:48:46   (slew complete)
11:48:46   Target is now centered.
11:48:46   (high cadence option, no web previews)
11:48:46   (long exposure, trying to autoguide)
11:48:46   Switching from V to B filter for imaging
11:48:46   Focus change of 4 steps required
11:48:50   (take guider image at initial interval 5 sec)
11:48:58 **No stars at all found in guider image
11:48:58 **No usable stars in guider image; trying again at max guider exposure
11:49:10 **No stars at all found in guider image
11:49:11 **No usable stars at max guider exposure interval, can't guide
11:49:11 **Autoguiding failed.
