03:48:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:48:33 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
03:48:33 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:48:33 User actions detected.
03:48:33 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
03:48:33 Dome is MaxDome
03:48:33 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
03:48:33 Imager is ASCOM
03:48:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:48:33 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20250207@034808 UTC
03:48:33 Imager readout modes:
03:48:33   0 is Fast
03:48:33   1 is Normal
03:48:33 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:48:33 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
03:48:33 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:48:33 Guider is set to multi-star mode
03:48:33 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:48:40 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
03:48:40 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
03:48:40 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:48:40 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
