Licensed to Arne Henden
08:44:18 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
08:44:18 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:44:18   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:44:18 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:44:19 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:44:19 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:44:19 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:44:19 Dome is MaxDome
08:44:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:44:19 Imager is ASCOM
08:44:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:44:19 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240222@084245 UTC
08:44:19 Imager readout modes:
08:44:19   0 is Fast
08:44:19   1 is Normal
08:44:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:44:19 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:44:19 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:44:19 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:44:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:44:19 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:44:19 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:44:19 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:44:19 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
