08:35:17 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
08:35:17 Custom image file path/names are in use

08:35:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:35:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
08:35:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:35:18 User actions detected.
08:35:18 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:35:19 Dome is MaxDome
08:35:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
08:35:19 Imager is ASCOM
08:35:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:35:19 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20220212@083247 UTC
08:35:19 Imager readout modes:
08:35:19   0 is Fast
08:35:19   1 is Normal
08:35:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:35:19 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
08:35:19 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
08:35:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:35:24 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
08:35:24 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
08:35:24 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:35:24 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
