This is ACP version 9.2 (build 1, ACP 9.2.1 (Production))
Licensed to Arne Henden
06:52:35 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
06:52:35 Custom image file path/names are in use
06:52:35   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
06:52:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:52:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
06:52:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:52:36 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:52:36 Dome is MaxDome
06:52:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:52:37 Imager is ASCOM
06:52:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:52:37 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250610@065125 UTC
06:52:37 Imager readout modes:
06:52:37   0 is Fast
06:52:37   1 is Normal
06:52:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:52:37 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:52:37 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
06:52:37 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:52:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:52:44 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:52:44 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:52:44 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:52:44 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
