Licensed to Arne Henden
10:04:16 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:04:16 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:04:16 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:04:17 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:04:17 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:04:17 User actions detected.
10:04:17 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:04:17 Dome is MaxDome
10:04:17 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:04:17 Imager is ASCOM
10:04:17 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:04:17 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230122@095251 UTC
10:04:17 Imager readout modes:
10:04:17   0 is Fast
10:04:17   1 is Normal
10:04:17 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:04:17 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:04:17 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:04:17 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:04:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:04:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:04:17 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:04:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:04:17 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:04:17 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
