04:20:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:20:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
04:20:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:20:33 User actions detected.
04:20:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:20:33 Dome is MaxDome
04:20:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
04:20:33 Imager is ASCOM
04:20:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:20:33 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20221225@041807 UTC
04:20:33 Imager readout modes:
04:20:33   0 is Fast
04:20:33   1 is Normal
04:20:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:20:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:20:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:20:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:20:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:20:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:20:33 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:20:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:20:33 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
04:20:33 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
