This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
05:17:14 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:17:14 Custom image file path/names are in use
05:17:14   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
05:17:14 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:17:15 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:17:15 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:17:15 User actions detected.
05:17:15 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:17:15 Dome is MaxDome
05:17:15 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:17:15 Imager is ASCOM
05:17:15 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:17:15 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230113@051045 UTC
05:17:15 Imager readout modes:
05:17:15   0 is Fast
05:17:15   1 is Normal
05:17:15 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:17:15 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:17:15 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:17:15 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:17:15 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:17:15 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:17:15 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:17:15 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:17:15 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
05:17:15 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
