Licensed to Arne Henden
10:56:10 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:56:10 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:56:10   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:56:10 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:56:11 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:56:11 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:56:11 User actions detected.
10:56:11 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:56:11 Dome is MaxDome
10:56:11 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:56:11 Imager is ASCOM
10:56:11 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:56:11 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230109@105431 UTC
10:56:11 Imager readout modes:
10:56:11   0 is Fast
10:56:11   1 is Normal
10:56:11 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:56:11 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:56:11 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:56:11 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:56:11 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:56:11 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:56:11 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:56:11 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:56:11 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:56:11 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
