02:54:01 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:54:02 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:54:02 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:54:02 User actions detected.
02:54:02 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:54:02 Dome is MaxDome
02:54:02 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:54:02 Imager is ASCOM
02:54:02 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:54:02 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250123@024932 UTC
02:54:02 Imager readout modes:
02:54:02   0 is Fast
02:54:02   1 is Normal
02:54:02 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:54:02 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:54:02 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:54:02 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:54:02 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:54:10 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:54:10 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:54:10 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:54:10 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
