02:35:57 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:35:57 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:35:57 User actions detected.
02:35:57 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:35:57 Dome is MaxDome
02:35:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:35:57 Imager is ASCOM
02:35:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:35:57 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230206@023523 UTC
02:35:57 Imager readout modes:
02:35:57   0 is Fast
02:35:57   1 is Normal
02:35:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:35:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:35:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:35:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:35:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:35:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:35:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:35:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
