05:22:39 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:22:39 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:22:39 Dome is MaxDome
05:22:39 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:22:39 Imager is ASCOM
05:22:39 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:22:39 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20240219@051709 UTC
05:22:39 Imager readout modes:
05:22:39   0 is Fast
05:22:39   1 is Normal
05:22:39 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:22:39 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:22:39 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:22:39 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:22:39 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:22:39 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
