04:23:37 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
04:23:37 Custom image file path/names are in use

04:23:37 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:23:38 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
04:23:38 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:23:38 User actions detected.
04:23:38 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:23:38 Dome is MaxDome
04:23:38 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:23:38 Imager is ASCOM
04:23:38 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:23:38 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250124@042143 UTC
04:23:38 Imager readout modes:
04:23:38   0 is Fast
04:23:38   1 is Normal
04:23:38 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:23:38 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:23:38 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:23:38 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:23:38 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:23:46 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:23:46 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:23:46 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:23:46 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
