Licensed to Arne Henden
01:49:39 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:49:39 Custom image file path/names are in use
01:49:39   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
01:49:39 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:49:40 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:49:40 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:49:40 User actions detected.
01:49:40 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:49:40 Dome is MaxDome
01:49:40 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:49:40 Imager is ASCOM
01:49:40 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:49:40 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230130@014628 UTC
01:49:40 Imager readout modes:
01:49:40   0 is Fast
01:49:40   1 is Normal
01:49:40 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:49:40 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:49:40 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:49:40 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:49:40 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:49:40 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:49:40 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:49:40 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
01:49:40 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
01:49:40 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
