03:54:21 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
03:54:21 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:54:21 User actions detected.
03:54:21 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3

03:54:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:54:21 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220212@035052 UTC
03:54:21 Imager readout modes:
03:54:21   0 is Fast
03:54:21   1 is Normal
03:54:21 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:54:21 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
03:54:21 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
03:54:21 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:54:26 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
03:54:26 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
03:54:26 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:54:26 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
