11:45:07 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:45:07 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:45:07 Dome is MaxDome
11:45:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:45:08 Imager is ASCOM
11:45:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:45:08 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20240224@114432 UTC
11:45:08 Imager readout modes:
11:45:08   0 is Fast
11:45:08   1 is Normal
11:45:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:45:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:45:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:45:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:45:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:45:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:45:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:45:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:45:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
