02:42:45 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:42:46 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:42:46 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:42:46 User actions detected.
02:42:46 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:42:46 Dome is MaxDome
02:42:46 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:42:46 Imager is ASCOM
02:42:46 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:42:46 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20250115@023832 UTC
02:42:46 Imager readout modes:
02:42:46   0 is Fast
02:42:46   1 is Normal
02:42:46 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:42:46 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:42:46 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:42:46 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:42:46 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:42:54 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:42:54 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:42:54 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:42:54 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
