06:03:56 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
06:03:56 Custom image file path/names are in use

06:03:56 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:03:58 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:03:58 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:03:58 User actions detected.
06:03:58 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:03:58 Dome is MaxDome
06:03:58 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:03:58 Imager is ASCOM
06:03:58 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:03:58 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230228@055452 UTC
06:03:58 Imager readout modes:
06:03:58   0 is Fast
06:03:58   1 is Normal
06:03:58 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:03:58 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:03:58 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:03:58 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:03:58 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:03:58 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:03:58 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
