Licensed to Arne Henden
03:23:42 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:23:42 Custom image file path/names are in use

03:23:42 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:23:43 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:23:43 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:23:43 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:23:43 Dome is MaxDome
03:23:44 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:23:44 Imager is ASCOM
03:23:44 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:23:44 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240217@032047 UTC
03:23:44 Imager readout modes:
03:23:44   0 is Fast
03:23:44   1 is Normal
03:23:44 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:23:44 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:23:44 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:23:44 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:23:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:23:44 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:23:44 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:23:44 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:23:44 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

03:24:05   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:24:05   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:24:08   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:24:08   (using Fast readout mode)
03:24:08   (starting exposure)
03:24:33   (exposure complete)
