This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
06:26:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:26:32 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:26:32   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:26:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:26:34 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:26:34 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:26:34 User actions detected.
06:26:34 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:26:34 Dome is MaxDome
06:26:34 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:26:34 Imager is ASCOM
06:26:34 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:26:34 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230122@062354 UTC
06:26:34 Imager readout modes:
06:26:34   0 is Fast
06:26:34   1 is Normal
06:26:34 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:26:34 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:26:34 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:26:34 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:26:34 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:26:34 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:26:34 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:26:34 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:26:34 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
06:26:34 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
