10:56:28 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:56:30 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:56:30 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:56:30 User actions detected.
10:56:30 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:56:30 Dome is MaxDome
10:56:30 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:56:30 Imager is ASCOM
10:56:30 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:56:30 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230228@105136 UTC
10:56:30 Imager readout modes:
10:56:30   0 is Fast
10:56:30   1 is Normal
10:56:30 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:56:30 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:56:30 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:56:30 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:56:30 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:56:30 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:56:30 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:56:30 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
