09:12:00 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:12:00 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:12:00 User actions detected.
09:12:00 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:12:00 Dome is MaxDome
09:12:01 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:12:01 Imager is ASCOM
09:12:01 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:12:01 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230207@091017 UTC
09:12:01 Imager readout modes:
09:12:01   0 is Fast
09:12:01   1 is Normal
09:12:01 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:12:01 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:12:01 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:12:01 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:12:01 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:12:01 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:12:01 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:12:01 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
