10:04:54 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
10:04:55 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
10:04:56 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:04:56 User actions detected.
10:04:56 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
10:04:56 Dome is MaxDome
10:04:56 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
10:04:56 Imager is ASCOM
10:04:56 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
10:04:56 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20230305@095514 UTC
10:04:56 Imager readout modes:
10:04:56   0 is Fast
10:04:56   1 is Normal
10:04:56 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
10:04:56 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
10:04:56 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
10:04:56 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
10:04:56 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
10:04:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
10:04:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:04:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
