04:42:31 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
04:42:31 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:42:31 User actions detected.
04:42:32 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:42:32 Dome is MaxDome
04:42:32 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
04:42:32 Imager is ASCOM
04:42:32 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:42:32 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220417@044204 UTC
04:42:32 Imager readout modes:
04:42:32   0 is Fast
04:42:32   1 is Normal
04:42:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:42:32 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
04:42:32 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
04:42:32 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:42:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
04:42:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
04:42:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:42:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
