Licensed to Arne Henden
04:26:17 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.5
04:26:17 Custom image file path/names are in use

04:26:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:26:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
04:26:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:26:19 User actions detected.
04:26:19 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:26:19 Dome is MaxDome
04:26:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
04:26:19 Imager is QSI Universal
04:26:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:26:19 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20201201@015551 UTC
04:26:19 Imager readout modes:
04:26:19   0 is Image Quality
04:26:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:26:19 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
04:26:19 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:26:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:26:24 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
04:26:24 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
04:26:24 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:26:24 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
