12:47:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
12:47:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:47:45 User actions detected.
12:47:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3

12:47:45 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:47:45 Imager is ASCOM
12:47:45 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:47:45 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250206@124615 UTC
12:47:45 Imager readout modes:
12:47:45   0 is Fast
12:47:45   1 is Normal
12:47:45 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:47:45 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:47:45 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:47:45 Guider is set to multi-star mode
12:47:45 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:47:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:47:52 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:47:52 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:47:52 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
