This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
13:06:35 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
13:06:35 Custom image file path/names are in use
13:06:35   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
13:06:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
13:06:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
13:06:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
13:06:36 User actions detected.
13:06:36 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
13:06:36 Dome is MaxDome
13:06:36 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
13:06:36 Imager is ASCOM
13:06:36 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
13:06:36 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20230110@124718 UTC
13:06:36 Imager readout modes:
13:06:36   0 is Fast
13:06:36   1 is Normal
13:06:36 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
13:06:36 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
13:06:36 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
13:06:36 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
13:06:36 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
13:06:36 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
13:06:36 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
13:06:36 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
13:06:36 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
13:06:36 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
