Licensed to Arne Henden
03:36:02 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:36:02 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:36:02   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:36:02 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:36:03 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:36:03 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:36:03 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:36:03 Dome is MaxDome
03:36:03 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:36:03 Imager is ASCOM
03:36:03 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:36:03 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240224@033530 UTC
03:36:03 Imager readout modes:
03:36:03   0 is Fast
03:36:03   1 is Normal
03:36:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:36:03 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:36:03 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:36:03 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:36:03 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:36:03 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:36:03 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:36:03 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:36:03 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

03:37:16   Switching from V to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:37:16   Focus change of -290 steps required
03:37:20   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:37:20   (using Fast readout mode)
03:37:20   (starting exposure)
03:37:45   (exposure complete)
03:37:47   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:37:48   Image finished
