04:37:11 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:37:11 Custom image file path/names are in use

04:37:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:37:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:37:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:37:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:37:12 Dome is MaxDome
04:37:12 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:37:12 Imager is ASCOM
04:37:12 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:37:12 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240213@043606 UTC
04:37:12 Imager readout modes:
04:37:12   0 is Fast
04:37:12   1 is Normal
04:37:12 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:37:12 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:37:12 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:37:12 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:37:12 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:37:12 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:37:12 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:37:12 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:37:12 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
