03:01:20 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:01:21 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:01:21 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:01:21 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:01:21 Dome is MaxDome
03:01:22 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:01:22 Imager is ASCOM
03:01:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:01:22 Selecting filter SU from previous ACP run at 20240118@025824 UTC
03:01:22 Imager readout modes:
03:01:22   0 is Fast
03:01:22   1 is Normal
03:01:22 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:01:22 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:01:22 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:01:22 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:01:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:01:22 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:01:22 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:01:22 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:01:22 Mount supports tracking rate offsets

03:02:13   Switching from SU to SR filter for pointing exposure
03:02:13   No focus change required
03:02:13   (taking 10 sec. exposure, SR filter, binning = 4)
03:02:13   (using Fast readout mode)
03:02:13   (starting exposure)
03:02:34   (exposure complete)
03:02:36   (exposure complete and image downloaded)
03:02:37   Image finished
03:02:37   Plate-solve pointing image.
03:02:38   510 image stars found
03:02:38   368 catalog stars found
03:02:39   Solved! 122 stars matched.
03:02:39   Average residual is 0.29 arcsec.
