11:04:39 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:04:40 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.0.3
11:04:40 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:04:40 User actions detected.
11:04:40 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
11:04:40 Dome is MaxDome
11:04:40 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
11:04:40 Imager is ASCOM
11:04:40 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:04:40 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20240710@110228 UTC
11:04:40 Imager readout modes:
11:04:40   0 is Fast
11:04:40   1 is Normal
11:04:40 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:04:40 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
11:04:40 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:04:40 Guider is set to multi-star mode
11:04:40 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:04:40 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
11:04:40 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
11:04:40 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:04:40 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
