This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
10:15:26 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:15:26 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:15:26   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:15:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:15:28 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:15:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:15:28 User actions detected.
10:15:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:15:28 Dome is MaxDome
10:15:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:15:28 Imager is ASCOM
10:15:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:15:28 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20221227@101327 UTC
10:15:28 Imager readout modes:
10:15:28   0 is Fast
10:15:28   1 is Normal
10:15:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:15:28 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:15:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:15:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:15:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:15:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:15:28 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:15:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:15:28 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:15:28 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
