02:28:28 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
02:28:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:28:28 User actions detected.
02:28:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:28:28 Dome is MaxDome
02:28:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
02:28:28 Imager is ASCOM
02:28:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:28:28 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220316@022753 UTC
02:28:28 Imager readout modes:
02:28:28   0 is Fast
02:28:28   1 is Normal
02:28:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:28:28 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:28:28 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
02:28:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:28:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
02:28:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
02:28:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
