Licensed to Arne Henden
03:56:12 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:56:12 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:56:12   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:56:12 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:56:13 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:56:13 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:56:13 User actions detected.
03:56:13 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:56:13 Dome is MaxDome
03:56:13 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:56:13 Imager is ASCOM
03:56:13 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:56:13 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20221217@035419 UTC
03:56:13 Imager readout modes:
03:56:13   0 is Fast
03:56:13   1 is Normal
03:56:13 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:56:13 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:56:13 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:56:13 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:56:13 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:56:13 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:56:13 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:56:13 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:56:13 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
03:56:13 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
