12:32:39 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:32:41 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
12:32:41 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:32:41 User actions detected.
12:32:41 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
12:32:41 Dome is MaxDome
12:32:41 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
12:32:41 Imager is ASCOM
12:32:41 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:32:41 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20230224@122240 UTC
12:32:41 Imager readout modes:
12:32:41   0 is Fast
12:32:41   1 is Normal
12:32:41 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:32:41 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
12:32:41 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:32:41 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:32:41 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
12:32:41 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
12:32:41 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:32:41 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
