07:00:17 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:00:17 Custom image file path/names are in use
07:00:17   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
07:00:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:00:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:00:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:00:18 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:00:18 Dome is MaxDome
07:00:19 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:00:19 Imager is ASCOM
07:00:19 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:00:19 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250526@065637 UTC
07:00:19 Imager readout modes:
07:00:19   0 is Fast
07:00:19   1 is Normal
07:00:19 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:00:19 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:00:19 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:00:19 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:00:19 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:00:26 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:00:26 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:00:26 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:00:26 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
