Licensed to Arne Henden
08:26:37 This is AcquireScheduler V9.0.3
08:26:37 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:26:37   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:26:37 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:26:38 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:26:38 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:26:38 User actions detected.
08:26:38 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:26:38 Dome is MaxDome
08:26:39 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:26:39 Imager is ASCOM
08:26:39 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:26:39 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240726@082559 UTC
08:26:39 Imager readout modes:
08:26:39   0 is Fast
08:26:39   1 is Normal
08:26:39 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:26:39 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:26:39 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:26:39 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:26:39 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:26:39 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:26:39 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:26:39 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:26:39 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
