06:07:26 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:07:27 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
06:07:27 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:07:27 User actions detected.
06:07:27 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
06:07:27 Dome is MaxDome
06:07:27 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
06:07:27 Imager is ASCOM
06:07:27 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:07:27 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250114@060708 UTC
06:07:27 Imager readout modes:
06:07:27   0 is Fast
06:07:27   1 is Normal
06:07:27 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:07:27 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
06:07:27 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:07:27 Guider is set to multi-star mode
06:07:27 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:07:35 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
06:07:35 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
06:07:35 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:07:35 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
