08:03:44 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:03:45 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:03:45 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:03:45 User actions detected.
08:03:45 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:03:45 Dome is MaxDome
08:03:46 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:03:46 Imager is ASCOM
08:03:46 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:03:46 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20221227@080136 UTC
08:03:46 Imager readout modes:
08:03:46   0 is Fast
08:03:46   1 is Normal
08:03:46 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:03:46 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:03:46 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:03:46 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:03:46 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:03:46 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:03:46 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:03:46 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
08:03:46 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
08:03:46 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
