06:51:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:51:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:51:28 Dome is MaxDome
06:51:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:51:28 Imager is ASCOM
06:51:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:51:28 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240119@064510 UTC
06:51:28 Imager readout modes:
06:51:28   0 is Fast
06:51:28   1 is Normal
06:51:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:51:28 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:51:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:51:28 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:51:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:51:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
