05:27:55 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:27:55 Custom image file path/names are in use

05:27:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:27:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:27:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:27:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:27:56 Dome is MaxDome
05:27:56 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:27:56 Imager is ASCOM
05:27:56 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:27:56 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240119@052720 UTC
05:27:56 Imager readout modes:
05:27:56   0 is Fast
05:27:56   1 is Normal
05:27:56 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:27:56 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:27:56 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:27:56 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:27:56 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:27:56 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:27:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:27:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:27:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
