02:33:30 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
02:33:30 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:33:30 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:33:31 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:33:31 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:33:31 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:33:31 Dome is MaxDome
02:33:31 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:33:31 Imager is ASCOM
02:33:31 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:33:31 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240219@023257 UTC
02:33:31 Imager readout modes:
02:33:31   0 is Fast
02:33:31   1 is Normal
02:33:31 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:33:31 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:33:31 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:33:31 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:33:31 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:33:31 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:33:31 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:33:31 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:33:31 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

02:33:58   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
02:33:58   Focus change of -290 steps required
02:34:02   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
02:34:02   (using Fast readout mode)
02:34:02   (starting exposure)
02:34:26   (exposure complete)
