10:18:47 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
10:18:47 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:18:47   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:18:47 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:18:48 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
10:18:48 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:18:48 User actions detected.
10:18:48 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:18:48 Dome is MaxDome
10:18:48 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
10:18:48 Imager is ASCOM
10:18:48 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:18:48 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220205@101504 UTC
10:18:48 Imager readout modes:
10:18:48   0 is Fast
10:18:48   1 is Normal
10:18:48 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:18:48 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
10:18:48 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
10:18:48 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:18:53 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
10:18:53 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
10:18:53 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:18:53 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
