02:57:58 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:57:58 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:57:58 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:57:59 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:57:59 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:57:59 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:57:59 Dome is MaxDome
02:57:59 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:57:59 Imager is ASCOM
02:57:59 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:57:59 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240119@025522 UTC
02:57:59 Imager readout modes:
02:57:59   0 is Fast
02:57:59   1 is Normal
02:57:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:57:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:57:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:57:59 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:57:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:57:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:57:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:57:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:57:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
