Licensed to Arne Henden
11:55:40 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
11:55:40 Custom image file path/names are in use

11:55:40 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:55:41 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:55:41 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:55:41 User actions detected.
11:55:41 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:55:41 Dome is MaxDome
11:55:41 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:55:41 Imager is ASCOM
11:55:41 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:55:41 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20230122@115054 UTC
11:55:41 Imager readout modes:
11:55:41   0 is Fast
11:55:41   1 is Normal
11:55:41 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:55:41 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:55:41 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:55:41 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:55:41 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:55:41 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:55:41 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:55:41 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:55:41 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
11:55:41 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
