This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
07:13:46 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
07:13:46 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:13:46   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:13:46 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:13:48 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
07:13:48 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:13:48 User actions detected.
07:13:48 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:13:48 Dome is MaxDome
07:13:48 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:13:48 Imager is ASCOM
07:13:48 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:13:48 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20221227@070304 UTC
07:13:48 Imager readout modes:
07:13:48   0 is Fast
07:13:48   1 is Normal
07:13:48 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:13:48 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:13:48 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:13:48 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:13:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:13:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:13:48 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:13:48 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:13:48 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
07:13:48 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
