04:34:22 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
04:34:22 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:34:22 User actions detected.
04:34:22 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:34:22 Dome is MaxDome
04:34:22 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
04:34:22 Imager is QSI Universal
04:34:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:34:22 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20210205@043142 UTC
04:34:22 Imager readout modes:
04:34:22   0 is Image Quality
04:34:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:34:22 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
04:34:22 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.

04:34:27 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
04:34:27 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
04:34:27 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
