10:38:22 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:38:23 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
10:38:23 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:38:23 User actions detected.
10:38:23 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:38:23 Dome is MaxDome
10:38:24 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
10:38:24 Imager is QSI Universal
10:38:24 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:38:24 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20210117@101815 UTC
10:38:24 Imager readout modes:
10:38:24   0 is Image Quality
10:38:24 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:38:24 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
10:38:24 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:38:24 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:38:29 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
10:38:29 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
10:38:29 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:38:29 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
