02:01:27 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:01:28 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:01:28 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:01:28 User actions detected.
02:01:28 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:01:28 Dome is MaxDome
02:01:28 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:01:28 Imager is ASCOM
02:01:28 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:01:28 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230130@015043 UTC
02:01:28 Imager readout modes:
02:01:28   0 is Fast
02:01:28   1 is Normal
02:01:28 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:01:28 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:01:28 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:01:28 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:01:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:01:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:01:28 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:01:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:01:28 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:01:28 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
