06:33:24 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
06:33:24 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:33:24   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:33:24 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:33:25 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
06:33:25 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:33:25 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:33:25 Dome is MaxDome
06:33:25 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:33:25 Imager is ASCOM
06:33:25 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:33:25 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250526@063248 UTC
06:33:25 Imager readout modes:
06:33:25   0 is Fast
06:33:25   1 is Normal
06:33:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:33:25 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:33:25 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
06:33:25 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:33:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:33:32 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:33:32 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:33:32 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:33:32 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
