05:53:28 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:53:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:53:28 User actions detected.
05:53:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:53:28 Dome is MaxDome
05:53:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:53:28 Imager is ASCOM
05:53:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:53:28 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230228@055212 UTC
05:53:28 Imager readout modes:
05:53:28   0 is Fast
05:53:28   1 is Normal
05:53:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:53:28 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:53:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:53:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:53:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:53:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:53:28 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:53:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
