12:01:12 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
12:01:12 Custom image file path/names are in use

12:01:12 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:01:13 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:01:13 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:01:13 User actions detected.
12:01:13 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:01:13 Dome is MaxDome
12:01:14 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:01:14 Imager is ASCOM
12:01:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:01:14 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230303@120006 UTC
12:01:14 Imager readout modes:
12:01:14   0 is Fast
12:01:14   1 is Normal
12:01:14 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:01:14 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:01:14 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:01:14 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:01:14 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:01:14 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:01:14 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:01:14 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
