05:39:58 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
05:39:58 Custom image file path/names are in use

05:39:58 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:39:59 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:39:59 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:39:59 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:39:59 Dome is MaxDome
05:39:59 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:39:59 Imager is ASCOM
05:39:59 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:39:59 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20240311@053542 UTC
05:39:59 Imager readout modes:
05:39:59   0 is Fast
05:39:59   1 is Normal
05:39:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:39:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:39:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:39:59 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:39:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:39:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:39:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:39:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:39:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
