10:48:18 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
10:48:18 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:48:18 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:48:20 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
10:48:20 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:48:20 User actions detected.
10:48:20 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:48:20 Dome is MaxDome
10:48:20 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
10:48:20 Imager is ASCOM
10:48:20 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:48:20 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220208@104020 UTC
10:48:20 Imager readout modes:
10:48:20   0 is Fast
10:48:20   1 is Normal
10:48:20 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:48:20 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
10:48:20 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
10:48:20 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:48:25 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
10:48:25 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
