06:53:51 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:53:51 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3

06:53:51 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20231013@065052 UTC
06:53:51 Imager readout modes:
06:53:51   0 is Fast
06:53:51   1 is Normal
06:53:51 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:53:51 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:53:51 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:53:51 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:53:51 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
