08:53:12 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
08:53:12 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:53:12   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:53:12 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:53:13 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:53:13 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:53:13 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:53:13 Dome is MaxDome
08:53:13 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:53:13 Imager is ASCOM
08:53:13 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:53:13 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250524@085103 UTC
08:53:13 Imager readout modes:
08:53:13   0 is Fast
08:53:13   1 is Normal
08:53:13 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:53:13 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:53:13 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:53:13 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:53:13 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:53:20 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:53:20 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:53:20 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:53:20 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
