09:42:10 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:42:11 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:42:11 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:42:11 User actions detected.
09:42:11 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:42:11 Dome is MaxDome
09:42:11 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:42:11 Imager is ASCOM
09:42:11 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:42:11 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230109@093839 UTC
09:42:11 Imager readout modes:
09:42:11   0 is Fast
09:42:11   1 is Normal
09:42:11 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:42:11 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:42:11 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:42:11 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:42:11 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:42:11 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:42:11 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:42:11 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:42:11 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
09:42:11 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
