01:58:32 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
01:58:32 Custom image file path/names are in use

01:58:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
01:58:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
01:58:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
01:58:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
01:58:33 Dome is MaxDome
01:58:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
01:58:33 Imager is ASCOM
01:58:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
01:58:33 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240223@015801 UTC
01:58:33 Imager readout modes:
01:58:33   0 is Fast
01:58:33   1 is Normal
01:58:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
01:58:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
01:58:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
01:58:33 Guider is set to multi-star mode
01:58:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
01:58:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
01:58:34 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
01:58:34 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
01:58:34 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

01:59:31   Switching from SG to SR filter for pointing exposure
