Licensed to Arne Henden
08:47:46 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
08:47:46 Custom image file path/names are in use

08:47:46 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:47:47 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:47:47 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:47:47 User actions detected.
08:47:47 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:47:47 Dome is MaxDome
08:47:47 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:47:47 Imager is ASCOM
08:47:47 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:47:47 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20230228@084711 UTC
08:47:47 Imager readout modes:
08:47:47   0 is Fast
08:47:47   1 is Normal
08:47:47 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:47:47 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:47:47 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:47:47 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:47:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:47:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:47:48 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:47:48 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
