03:13:25 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
03:13:25 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:13:25   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
03:13:25 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:13:26 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:13:26 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:13:26 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:13:26 Dome is MaxDome
03:13:26 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:13:26 Imager is ASCOM
03:13:26 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:13:26 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240507@031251 UTC
03:13:26 Imager readout modes:
03:13:26   0 is Fast
03:13:26   1 is Normal
03:13:26 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:13:26 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:13:26 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:13:26 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:13:26 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:13:26 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:13:26 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:13:26 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:13:26 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
