09:04:42 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
09:04:44 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
09:04:44 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
09:04:44 User actions detected.
09:04:44 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
09:04:44 Dome is MaxDome
09:04:44 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
09:04:44 Imager is ASCOM
09:04:44 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:04:44 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230122@085021 UTC
09:04:44 Imager readout modes:
09:04:44   0 is Fast
09:04:44   1 is Normal
09:04:44 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:04:44 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
09:04:44 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
09:04:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:04:44 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
09:04:44 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
09:04:44 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
09:04:44 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
09:04:44 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
09:04:44 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
