Licensed to Arne Henden
05:56:37 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:56:37 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:56:37   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:56:37 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:56:38 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:56:38 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:56:38 User actions detected.
05:56:38 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:56:38 Dome is MaxDome
05:56:38 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:56:38 Imager is ASCOM
05:56:38 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:56:38 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20221227@054448 UTC
05:56:38 Imager readout modes:
05:56:38   0 is Fast
05:56:38   1 is Normal
05:56:38 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:56:38 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:56:38 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:56:38 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:56:38 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:56:38 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:56:38 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:56:38 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:56:38 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
05:56:38 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
