Licensed to Arne Henden
10:15:26 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
10:15:26 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:15:26   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:15:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:15:27 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
10:15:27 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:15:27 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:15:27 Dome is MaxDome
10:15:27 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:15:27 Imager is ASCOM
10:15:27 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:15:27 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250526@101450 UTC
10:15:27 Imager readout modes:
10:15:27   0 is Fast
10:15:27   1 is Normal
10:15:27 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:15:27 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:15:27 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
10:15:27 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:15:27 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:15:35 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:15:35 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:15:35 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:15:35 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
