03:42:30 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:42:30 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:42:30 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:42:30 Dome is MaxDome
03:42:31 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:42:31 Imager is ASCOM
03:42:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:42:31 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230327@033148 UTC
03:42:31 Imager readout modes:
03:42:31   0 is Fast
03:42:31   1 is Normal
03:42:31 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:42:31 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:42:31 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:42:31 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:42:31 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:42:31 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:42:31 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:42:31 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
