03:14:15 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:14:16 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
03:14:16 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:14:16 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:14:16 Dome is MaxDome
03:14:17 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:14:17 Imager is ASCOM
03:14:17 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:14:17 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240219@031251 UTC
03:14:17 Imager readout modes:
03:14:17   0 is Fast
03:14:17   1 is Normal
03:14:17 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:14:17 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:14:17 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:14:17 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:14:17 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:14:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:14:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:14:17 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:14:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
