10:54:31 This is AcquireScheduler V9.1.3
10:54:31 Custom image file path/names are in use
10:54:31   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=300 AF=180 PU=60]
10:54:31 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:54:32 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
10:54:32 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:54:32 User actions detected.
10:54:32 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:54:32 Dome is MaxDome
10:54:32 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:54:32 Imager is ASCOM
10:54:32 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:54:32 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250623@105349 UTC
10:54:32 Imager readout modes:
10:54:32   0 is Fast
10:54:32   1 is Normal
10:54:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:54:32 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:54:32 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
10:54:32 Guider is set to multi-star mode
10:54:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:54:40 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:54:40 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:54:40 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:54:40 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
