05:45:02 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:45:02 Custom image file path/names are in use

05:45:02 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:45:03 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:45:03 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:45:03 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:45:03 Dome is MaxDome
05:45:03 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:45:03 Imager is ASCOM
05:45:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:45:03 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240223@054308 UTC
05:45:03 Imager readout modes:
05:45:03   0 is Fast
05:45:03   1 is Normal
05:45:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:45:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:45:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:45:03 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:45:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:45:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:45:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:45:03 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:45:03 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
