Licensed to Arne Henden
05:24:22 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
05:24:22 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:24:22   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:24:22 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:24:23 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
05:24:23 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:24:23 User actions detected.
05:24:23 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:24:24 Dome is MaxDome
05:24:24 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
05:24:24 Imager is ASCOM
05:24:24 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:24:24 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220409@052357 UTC
05:24:24 Imager readout modes:
05:24:24   0 is Fast
05:24:24   1 is Normal
05:24:24 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:24:24 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
05:24:24 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
05:24:24 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:24:29 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
05:24:29 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
05:24:29 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:24:29 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:24:29 ACPS Observation PG_1424+240(1 of 1)
05:24:29   (belongs to Project AAVSO_survey_HQ_AUTO_ver2706, Plan PG_1424+240)
