07:45:49 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:45:51 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.3.1
07:45:51 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:45:51 User actions detected.
07:45:51 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
07:45:51 Dome is MaxDome
07:45:51 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
07:45:51 Imager is ASCOM
07:45:51 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:45:52 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220208@073600 UTC
07:45:52 Imager readout modes:
07:45:52   0 is Fast
07:45:52   1 is Normal
07:45:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:45:52 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
07:45:52 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
07:45:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:45:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
07:45:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
07:45:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:45:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
