03:23:28 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:23:28 Custom image file path/names are in use

03:23:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:23:29 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:23:29 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:23:29 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:23:29 Dome is MaxDome
03:23:29 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:23:29 Imager is ASCOM
03:23:29 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:23:29 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240222@032216 UTC
03:23:29 Imager readout modes:
03:23:29   0 is Fast
03:23:29   1 is Normal
03:23:29 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:23:29 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:23:29 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:23:29 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:23:29 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:23:29 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:23:29 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:23:29 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:23:29 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
