Licensed to Arne Henden
02:36:52 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.5
02:36:52 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:36:52 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:36:53 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
02:36:53 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:36:53 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:36:53 Dome is MaxDome
02:36:54 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
02:36:54 Imager is QSI Universal
02:36:54 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:36:54 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20200415@023335 UTC
02:36:54 Imager readout modes:
02:36:54   0 is Image Quality
02:36:54 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:36:54 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:36:54 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:36:54 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:36:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
02:36:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
02:36:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:36:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:36:59 ACPS Observation KH15D-B(1 of 1)
02:36:59   (belongs to Project KH15D, Plan KH15D-B)

02:37:22   Search 15 deg-square area for possible stars
02:37:24   Looking for stars between mags 6 and 9
02:37:34   Found mag 6.0 star, GSC 0153-2500; nothing within 229 arcsec.
02:37:38   Star J2000 coordinates RA=06:58:57 Dec=03° 36' 08"
02:37:38   Using star at mag 6.0. Slew to star.
02:37:38   Start slew to AutoFocus...
02:37:39   (wait for slew to complete)
02:37:58   (slew complete)

02:38:21   82 image stars found
02:38:21   90 catalog stars found
02:38:22   Solved! 28 stars matched.
02:38:22   Average residual is 0.27 arcsec.
02:38:22   Pointing error is 0.884 arcmin @ angle 323.11
02:38:22   True focal length is 3461.1 mm.
02:38:22   True binned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 1.29 V = 1.29
02:38:22   True image center (J2000): 06h 58m 54.8s   03° 36' 50.52"
02:38:22   Imager sky position angle is 358.3 deg.
02:38:22   [sync] pointing model updated
02:38:22   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
02:38:22   Target is now centered.
02:38:22   (AF will use Image Quality readout mode)
02:38:22   Starting Autofocus...
02:41:26 **AutoFocus failed. Check FocusMax log for details.
