02:34:55 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:34:55 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:34:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:34:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:34:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:34:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:34:56 Dome is MaxDome
02:34:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:34:57 Imager is ASCOM
02:34:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:34:57 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240215@022729 UTC
02:34:57 Imager readout modes:
02:34:57   0 is Fast
02:34:57   1 is Normal
02:34:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:34:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:34:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:34:57 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:34:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:34:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:34:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:34:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:34:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

02:36:24   Switching from B to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:36:24   Focus change of -320 steps required
02:36:28   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:36:28   (using Fast readout mode)
02:36:28   (starting exposure)
02:36:54   (exposure complete)
