07:53:27 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:53:28 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
07:53:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:53:28 User actions detected.
07:53:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:53:29 Dome is MaxDome
07:53:29 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
07:53:29 Imager is QSI Universal
07:53:29 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:53:29 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20210209@075054 UTC
07:53:29 Imager readout modes:
07:53:29   0 is Image Quality
07:53:29 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:53:29 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
07:53:29 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
07:53:29 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:53:34 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
07:53:34 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
07:53:34 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:53:34 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
