08:16:19 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
08:16:19 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:16:19   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:16:19 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:16:20 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:16:20 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:16:20 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:16:20 Dome is MaxDome
08:16:21 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:16:21 Imager is ASCOM
08:16:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:16:21 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250524@081345 UTC
08:16:21 Imager readout modes:
08:16:21   0 is Fast
08:16:21   1 is Normal
08:16:21 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:16:21 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:16:21 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:16:21 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:16:21 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:16:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:16:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:16:28 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:16:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
