02:48:03 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:48:03 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:48:03 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:48:03 Dome is MaxDome
02:48:03 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:48:03 Imager is ASCOM
02:48:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:48:03 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230326@024649 UTC
02:48:03 Imager readout modes:
02:48:03   0 is Fast
02:48:03   1 is Normal
02:48:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:48:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:48:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:48:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:48:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:48:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:48:03 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:48:03 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
