11:46:58 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:46:59 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:46:59 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:46:59 User actions detected.
11:46:59 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:46:59 Dome is MaxDome
11:46:59 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:46:59 Imager is ASCOM
11:46:59 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:46:59 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20221222@114402 UTC
11:46:59 Imager readout modes:
11:46:59   0 is Fast
11:46:59   1 is Normal
11:46:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:46:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:46:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:46:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:46:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:47:00 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:47:00 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:47:00 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:47:00 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
11:47:00 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
