06:04:49 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:04:49 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:04:49 User actions detected.
06:04:49 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:04:49 Dome is MaxDome
06:04:49 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:04:49 Imager is ASCOM
06:04:49 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:04:49 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230305@055434 UTC
06:04:49 Imager readout modes:
06:04:49   0 is Fast
06:04:49   1 is Normal
06:04:49 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:04:49 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:04:49 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:04:49 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:04:49 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:04:49 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:04:49 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:04:49 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
