05:08:51 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:08:53 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:08:53 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:08:53 User actions detected.
05:08:53 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:08:53 Dome is MaxDome
05:08:53 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:08:53 Imager is ASCOM
05:08:53 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:08:53 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230109@050604 UTC
05:08:53 Imager readout modes:
05:08:53   0 is Fast
05:08:53   1 is Normal
05:08:53 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:08:53 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:08:53 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:08:53 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:08:53 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:08:53 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:08:53 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:08:53 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:08:53 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
05:08:53 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
