02:11:57 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:11:58 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:11:58 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:11:58 User actions detected.
02:11:58 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:11:58 Dome is MaxDome
02:11:58 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:11:58 Imager is ASCOM
02:11:58 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:11:58 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230108@021043 UTC
02:11:58 Imager readout modes:
02:11:58   0 is Fast
02:11:58   1 is Normal
02:11:58 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:11:58 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:11:58 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:11:58 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:11:58 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:11:58 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:11:58 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:11:58 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:11:58 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:11:58 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
