08:57:19 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
08:57:19 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:57:19   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:57:19 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:57:21 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
08:57:21 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:57:21 User actions detected.
08:57:21 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:57:21 Dome is MaxDome
08:57:21 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
08:57:21 Imager is ASCOM
08:57:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:57:21 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220208@084925 UTC
08:57:22 Imager readout modes:
08:57:22   0 is Fast
08:57:22   1 is Normal
08:57:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:57:22 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
08:57:22 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
08:57:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:57:27 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
08:57:27 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
08:57:27 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:57:27 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
