08:07:49 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
08:07:49 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:07:49   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:07:49 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:07:50 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:07:50 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:07:50 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:07:50 Dome is MaxDome
08:07:50 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:07:50 Imager is ASCOM
08:07:50 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:07:50 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250526@080718 UTC
08:07:50 Imager readout modes:
08:07:50   0 is Fast
08:07:50   1 is Normal
08:07:50 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:07:50 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:07:50 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
08:07:50 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:07:50 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:07:58 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:07:58 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:07:58 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:07:58 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
