08:19:44 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
08:19:44 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:19:44   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:19:44 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:19:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:19:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:19:45 User actions detected.
08:19:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:19:46 Dome is MaxDome
08:19:46 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:19:46 Imager is ASCOM
08:19:46 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:19:46 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250115@081449 UTC
08:19:46 Imager readout modes:
08:19:46   0 is Fast
08:19:46   1 is Normal
08:19:46 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:19:46 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:19:46 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:19:46 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:19:46 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:19:53 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:19:53 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:19:53 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:19:53 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

08:21:05   Switching from SI to SR filter for pointing exposure
08:21:05   Focus change of 20 steps required
08:21:08   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)

08:21:29   Imager sky position angle is 178.9 deg.
08:21:29   [sync] pointing model updated
08:21:29   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
08:21:29   Target is now centered.
08:21:29   (high cadence option, no web previews)
08:21:29   (aggregated exposure times, trying to autoguide)
08:21:29   Switching from SR to R filter for imaging
