02:09:08 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:09:08 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:09:08 Dome is MaxDome
02:09:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:09:08 Imager is ASCOM
02:09:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:09:08 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240213@020832 UTC
02:09:08 Imager readout modes:
02:09:08   0 is Fast
02:09:08   1 is Normal
02:09:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:09:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:09:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:09:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:09:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:09:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:09:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
