05:31:07 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:31:08 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:31:08 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:31:08 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:31:08 Dome is MaxDome
05:31:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:31:08 Imager is ASCOM
05:31:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:31:08 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240217@052419 UTC
05:31:08 Imager readout modes:
05:31:08   0 is Fast
05:31:08   1 is Normal
05:31:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:31:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:31:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:31:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:31:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:31:08 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:31:08 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:31:08 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:31:08 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
