06:57:10 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
06:57:10 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:57:10 User actions detected.
06:57:10 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:57:11 Dome is MaxDome
06:57:11 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
06:57:11 Imager is ASCOM
06:57:11 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:57:11 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220418@064903 UTC
06:57:11 Imager readout modes:
06:57:11   0 is Fast
06:57:11   1 is Normal
06:57:11 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:57:11 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
06:57:11 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
06:57:11 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:57:16 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
06:57:16 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
06:57:16 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:57:16 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
