09:31:37 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:31:37 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:31:37 User actions detected.
09:31:37 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:31:37 Dome is MaxDome
09:31:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:31:37 Imager is ASCOM
09:31:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:31:37 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230203@092048 UTC
09:31:37 Imager readout modes:
09:31:37   0 is Fast
09:31:37   1 is Normal
09:31:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:31:37 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:31:37 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:31:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:31:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:31:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:31:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:31:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
