09:14:00 This is AcquireScheduler V8.2.8
09:14:00 Custom image file path/names are in use

09:14:00 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:14:01 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
09:14:01 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:14:01 User actions detected.
09:14:01 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:14:01 Dome is MaxDome
09:14:02 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
09:14:02 Imager is ASCOM
09:14:02 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:14:02 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20220416@091210 UTC
09:14:02 Imager readout modes:
09:14:02   0 is Fast
09:14:02   1 is Normal
09:14:02 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:14:02 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
09:14:02 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
09:14:02 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:14:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
09:14:07 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
09:14:07 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:14:07 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
