03:04:56 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:04:56 Custom image file path/names are in use

03:04:56 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:04:57 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:04:57 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:04:57 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:04:57 Dome is MaxDome
03:04:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:04:57 Imager is ASCOM
03:04:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:04:57 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240219@030422 UTC
03:04:57 Imager readout modes:
03:04:57   0 is Fast
03:04:57   1 is Normal
03:04:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:04:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:04:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:04:57 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:04:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:04:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:04:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:04:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:04:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
