This is ACP version 9.0 (build 4, ACP 9 Production Release)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:35:33 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:35:33 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:35:33   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
02:35:33 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:35:34 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:35:34 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:35:34 User actions detected.
02:35:34 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:35:34 Dome is MaxDome
02:35:34 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:35:34 Imager is ASCOM
02:35:34 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:35:34 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230130@021145 UTC
02:35:34 Imager readout modes:
02:35:34   0 is Fast
02:35:34   1 is Normal
02:35:34 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:35:34 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:35:34 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:35:34 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:35:34 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:35:34 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:35:34 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:35:34 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:35:34 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:35:34 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
