05:52:41 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:52:41 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:52:41 Dome is MaxDome
05:52:43 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:52:43 Imager is ASCOM
05:52:43 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:52:43 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240223@055205 UTC
05:52:43 Imager readout modes:
05:52:43   0 is Fast
05:52:43   1 is Normal
05:52:43 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:52:43 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:52:43 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
