02:52:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:52:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:52:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:52:56 User actions detected.
02:52:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:52:56 Dome is MaxDome
02:52:56 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:52:56 Imager is ASCOM
02:52:56 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:52:56 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20221217@025111 UTC
02:52:56 Imager readout modes:
02:52:56   0 is Fast
02:52:56   1 is Normal
02:52:56 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:52:56 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:52:56 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:52:56 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:52:56 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:52:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:52:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:52:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:52:56 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:52:56 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
