10:26:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:26:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:26:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:26:12 User actions detected.
10:26:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:26:12 Dome is MaxDome
10:26:12 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:26:12 Imager is ASCOM
10:26:12 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:26:12 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230122@102537 UTC
10:26:12 Imager readout modes:
10:26:12   0 is Fast
10:26:12   1 is Normal
10:26:12 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:26:12 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:26:12 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:26:12 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:26:12 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:26:12 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:26:12 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:26:12 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:26:12 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:26:12 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
