10:07:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:07:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:07:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II

10:07:36 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:07:36 Dome is MaxDome
10:07:37 MaxIm DL is version 6.28

10:07:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:07:37 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20230303@095255 UTC
10:07:37 Imager readout modes:
10:07:37   0 is Fast
10:07:37   1 is Normal
10:07:37 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:07:37 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:07:37 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:07:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:07:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:07:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:07:37 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:07:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
