Licensed to Arne Henden
09:58:03 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
09:58:03 Custom image file path/names are in use
09:58:03   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
09:58:03 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:58:04 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
09:58:04 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:58:04 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:58:05 Dome is MaxDome
09:58:05 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:58:05 Imager is ASCOM
09:58:05 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:58:05 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250526@095433 UTC
09:58:05 Imager readout modes:
09:58:05   0 is Fast
09:58:05   1 is Normal
09:58:05 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:58:05 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:58:05 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
09:58:05 Guider is set to multi-star mode
09:58:05 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:58:12 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:58:12 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:58:12 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:58:12 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
