07:26:23 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
07:26:23 Custom image file path/names are in use

07:26:23 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:26:25 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
07:26:25 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:26:25 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:26:25 Dome is MaxDome
07:26:25 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
07:26:25 Imager is ASCOM
07:26:25 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:26:25 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20250610@072546 UTC
07:26:25 Imager readout modes:
07:26:25   0 is Fast
07:26:25   1 is Normal
07:26:25 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:26:25 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
07:26:25 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
07:26:25 Guider is set to multi-star mode
07:26:25 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:26:32 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
07:26:32 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
07:26:32 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:26:32 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

07:27:15   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
07:27:15   No focus change required
07:27:15   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
07:27:15   (using Fast readout mode)
