02:02:57 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:02:58 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
02:02:58 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:02:58 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:02:58 Dome is MaxDome
02:02:58 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:02:58 Imager is ASCOM
02:02:58 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:02:58 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20240222@020100 UTC
02:02:58 Imager readout modes:
02:02:58   0 is Fast
02:02:58   1 is Normal
02:02:58 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:02:59 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:02:59 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:02:59 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:02:59 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:02:59 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:02:59 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:02:59 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:02:59 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
