07:30:10 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:30:10 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:30:10 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:30:10 Dome is MaxDome
07:30:10 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:30:10 Imager is ASCOM
07:30:10 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:30:10 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250526@072934 UTC
07:30:10 Imager readout modes:
07:30:10   0 is Fast
07:30:10   1 is Normal
07:30:10 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:30:10 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:30:10 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:30:10 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:30:10 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:30:18 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:30:18 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:30:18 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:30:18 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
