12:33:22 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
12:33:22 Custom image file path/names are in use

12:33:22 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:33:23 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:33:23 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:33:23 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:33:23 Dome is MaxDome
12:33:23 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:33:23 Imager is ASCOM
12:33:23 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:33:23 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240222@123102 UTC
12:33:23 Imager readout modes:
12:33:23   0 is Fast
12:33:23   1 is Normal
12:33:23 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:33:23 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:33:23 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:33:23 Guider is set to multi-star mode
12:33:23 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:33:23 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:33:23 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:33:23 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:33:23 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

12:34:05   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
12:34:06   Focus change of -50 steps required
12:34:08   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
12:34:08   (using Fast readout mode)
12:34:08   (starting exposure)
12:34:29   (exposure complete)
