11:34:11 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
11:34:11 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:34:11   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
11:34:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:34:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:34:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:34:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:34:13 Dome is MaxDome
11:34:13 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:34:13 Imager is ASCOM
11:34:13 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:34:13 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240127@110517 UTC
11:34:13 Imager readout modes:
11:34:13   0 is Fast
11:34:13   1 is Normal
11:34:13 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:34:13 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:34:13 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:34:13 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:34:13 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:34:13 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:34:13 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:34:13 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:34:13 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

11:35:44   Image finished
11:35:44   Plate-solve pointing image.
11:35:44   281 image stars found
11:35:44   193 catalog stars found
11:35:46   Solved! 61 stars matched.
11:35:46   Average residual is 0.35 arcsec.
