04:36:42 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:36:43 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
04:36:43 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:36:43 User actions detected.
04:36:43 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
04:36:43 Dome is MaxDome
04:36:43 MaxIm DL is version 6.28

04:36:43 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:36:43 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20250207@043433 UTC
04:36:43 Imager readout modes:
04:36:43   0 is Fast
04:36:43   1 is Normal
04:36:43 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:36:43 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
04:36:43 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:36:43 Guider is set to multi-star mode
04:36:43 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:36:50 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
04:36:50 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
04:36:50 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:36:50 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
