04:13:13 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
04:13:13 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:13:13   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:13:13 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:13:14 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:13:14 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:13:14 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:13:14 Dome is MaxDome
04:13:14 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:13:14 Imager is ASCOM
04:13:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:13:14 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240215@041239 UTC
04:13:14 Imager readout modes:
04:13:14   0 is Fast
04:13:14   1 is Normal
04:13:14 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:13:14 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:13:14 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:13:14 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:13:14 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:13:14 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:13:14 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:13:14 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:13:14 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
