Licensed to Arne Henden
04:58:15 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
04:58:15 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:58:15   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
04:58:15 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:58:16 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
04:58:16 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:58:16 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:58:16 Dome is MaxDome
04:58:17 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:58:17 Imager is ASCOM
04:58:17 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:58:17 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250526@044946 UTC
04:58:17 Imager readout modes:
04:58:17   0 is Fast
04:58:17   1 is Normal
04:58:17 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:58:17 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:58:17 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
04:58:17 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:58:17 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:58:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:58:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:58:17 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:58:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
