11:11:55 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:11:56 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:11:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:11:56 User actions detected.
11:11:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:11:57 Dome is MaxDome
11:11:57 MaxIm DL is version 6.28

11:11:57 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:11:57 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20230303@111043 UTC
11:11:57 Imager readout modes:
11:11:57   0 is Fast
11:11:57   1 is Normal
11:11:57 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:11:57 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:11:57 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:11:57 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:11:57 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:11:57 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:11:57 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:11:57 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
