03:17:18 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:17:18 Custom image file path/names are in use

03:17:18 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:17:19 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:17:19 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:17:19 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:17:19 Dome is MaxDome
03:17:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:17:19 Imager is ASCOM
03:17:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:17:19 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240224@031605 UTC
03:17:19 Imager readout modes:
03:17:19   0 is Fast
03:17:19   1 is Normal
03:17:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:17:19 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:17:19 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:17:19 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:17:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:17:19 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:17:19 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:17:19 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:17:19 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
