Licensed to Arne Henden
07:14:29 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:14:29 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:14:29   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:14:29 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:14:30 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:14:30 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:14:30 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:14:30 Dome is MaxDome
07:14:30 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:14:30 Imager is ASCOM
07:14:30 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:14:30 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250526@071357 UTC
07:14:30 Imager readout modes:
07:14:30   0 is Fast
07:14:30   1 is Normal
07:14:30 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:14:30 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:14:30 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:14:30 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:14:30 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:14:39 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:14:39 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:14:39 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:14:39 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
