05:42:11 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:42:12 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
05:42:12 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
05:42:12 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
05:42:12 Dome is MaxDome
05:42:13 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
05:42:13 Imager is ASCOM
05:42:13 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:42:13 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20240224@053916 UTC
05:42:13 Imager readout modes:
05:42:13   0 is Fast
05:42:13   1 is Normal
05:42:13 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
05:42:13 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
05:42:13 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
05:42:13 Guider is set to multi-star mode
05:42:13 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:42:13 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
05:42:13 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
05:42:13 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:42:13 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
