06:03:51 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:03:52 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
06:03:52 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:03:52 User actions detected.
06:03:52 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:03:52 Dome is MaxDome
06:03:52 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:03:52 Imager is ASCOM
06:03:52 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:03:52 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230105@060000 UTC
06:03:52 Imager readout modes:
06:03:52   0 is Fast
06:03:52   1 is Normal
06:03:52 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:03:52 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:03:52 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:03:52 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:03:52 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:03:52 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:03:52 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:03:52 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:03:52 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
06:03:52 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
