11:59:07 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:59:07 Dome is MaxDome
11:59:07 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:59:07 Imager is ASCOM
11:59:07 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:59:07 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230305@115654 UTC
11:59:07 Imager readout modes:
11:59:07   0 is Fast
11:59:07   1 is Normal
11:59:07 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:59:07 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:59:07 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:59:07 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:59:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:59:07 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:59:07 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:59:07 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
