13:04:30 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
13:04:30 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
13:04:30 User actions detected.
13:04:30 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
13:04:30 Dome is MaxDome
13:04:31 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
13:04:31 Imager is ASCOM
13:04:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
13:04:31 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220212@130312 UTC
13:04:31 Imager readout modes:
13:04:31   0 is Fast
13:04:31   1 is Normal
13:04:31 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
13:04:31 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
13:04:31 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
13:04:31 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
13:04:36 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
13:04:36 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
13:04:36 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
13:04:36 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
