12:45:31 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
12:45:31 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:45:31 User actions detected.
12:45:31 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:45:31 Dome is MaxDome
12:45:31 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
12:45:31 Imager is ASCOM
12:45:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:45:31 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220205@121752 UTC
12:45:32 Imager readout modes:
12:45:32   0 is Fast
12:45:32   1 is Normal
12:45:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:45:32 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
12:45:32 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
12:45:32 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:45:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
12:45:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
12:45:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:45:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
12:45:37 ACPS Observation X_Ser(1 of 1)
12:45:37   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver2706, Plan X_Ser)
12:45:37   (turning on sidereal tracking)
