08:26:41 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:26:42 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:26:42 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:26:42 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:26:42 Dome is MaxDome
08:26:42 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:26:43 Imager is ASCOM
08:26:43 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:26:43 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240219@081347 UTC
08:26:43 Imager readout modes:
08:26:43   0 is Fast
08:26:43   1 is Normal
08:26:43 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:26:43 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:26:43 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:26:43 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:26:43 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:26:43 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:26:43 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:26:43 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:26:43 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
