08:17:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:17:27 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:17:27 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:17:27 User actions detected.
08:17:27 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:17:27 Dome is MaxDome
08:17:27 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:17:27 Imager is ASCOM
08:17:27 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:17:27 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20221222@081613 UTC
08:17:27 Imager readout modes:
08:17:27   0 is Fast
08:17:27   1 is Normal
08:17:27 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:17:27 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:17:27 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:17:27 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:17:27 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:17:27 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:17:27 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:17:27 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
08:17:27 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
08:17:27 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
