10:49:06 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
10:49:06 Custom image file path/names are in use

10:49:06 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:49:07 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:49:07 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:49:07 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:49:07 Dome is MaxDome
10:49:07 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:49:07 Imager is ASCOM
10:49:07 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:49:07 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240507@104016 UTC
10:49:07 Imager readout modes:
10:49:07   0 is Fast
10:49:07   1 is Normal
10:49:07 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:49:07 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:49:07 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:49:07 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:49:07 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:49:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:49:07 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:49:07 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:49:07 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
