11:21:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:21:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.2.10
11:21:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:21:36 User actions detected.
11:21:36 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:21:37 Dome is MaxDome
11:21:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.21
11:21:37 Imager is QSI Universal
11:21:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:21:37 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20210223@111804 UTC
11:21:37 Imager readout modes:
11:21:37   0 is Image Quality
11:21:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:21:37 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
11:21:37 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:21:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:21:42 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
11:21:42 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
11:21:42 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:21:42 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
