11:50:19 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:50:19 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:50:19 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:50:19 Dome is MaxDome
11:50:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:50:19 Imager is ASCOM
11:50:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:50:20 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20230327@114835 UTC
11:50:20 Imager readout modes:
11:50:20   0 is Fast
11:50:20   1 is Normal
11:50:20 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:50:20 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:50:20 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:50:20 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:50:20 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:50:20 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:50:20 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:50:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
