10:48:57 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:48:58 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:48:58 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:48:58 User actions detected.
10:48:58 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:48:59 Dome is MaxDome
10:48:59 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:48:59 Imager is ASCOM
10:48:59 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:48:59 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230122@104620 UTC
10:48:59 Imager readout modes:
10:48:59   0 is Fast
10:48:59   1 is Normal
10:48:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:48:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:48:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:48:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:48:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:48:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:48:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:48:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:48:59 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:48:59 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
