02:15:48 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:15:49 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:15:49 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:15:49 User actions detected.
02:15:49 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:15:49 Dome is MaxDome
02:15:49 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:15:49 Imager is ASCOM
02:15:49 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:15:49 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250123@021408 UTC
02:15:49 Imager readout modes:
02:15:49   0 is Fast
02:15:49   1 is Normal
02:15:49 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:15:49 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:15:49 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:15:49 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:15:49 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:15:56 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:15:56 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:15:56 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:15:56 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
