Licensed to Arne Henden
08:02:34 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
08:02:34 Custom image file path/names are in use
08:02:34   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
08:02:34 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:02:35 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:02:35 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:02:35 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:02:35 Dome is MaxDome
08:02:35 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:02:35 Imager is ASCOM
08:02:35 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:02:35 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250605@075956 UTC
08:02:35 Imager readout modes:
08:02:35   0 is Fast
08:02:35   1 is Normal
08:02:36 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:02:36 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:02:36 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
08:02:36 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:02:36 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:02:43 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:02:43 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:02:43 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:02:43 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
