08:43:47 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:43:48 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
08:43:48 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:43:48 User actions detected.
08:43:48 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:43:48 Dome is MaxDome
08:43:48 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:43:48 Imager is ASCOM
08:43:48 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:43:48 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20240625@084056 UTC
08:43:48 Imager readout modes:
08:43:48   0 is Fast
08:43:48   1 is Normal
08:43:48 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:43:48 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:43:48 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
08:43:48 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:43:48 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:43:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:43:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:43:48 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:43:48 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
