02:45:07 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:45:08 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
02:45:08 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:45:08 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
02:45:08 Dome is MaxDome
02:45:08 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
02:45:08 Imager is ASCOM
02:45:08 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:45:08 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20250224@024239 UTC
02:45:08 Imager readout modes:
02:45:08   0 is Fast
02:45:08   1 is Normal
02:45:08 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:45:08 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
02:45:08 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
02:45:08 Guider is set to multi-star mode
02:45:08 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:45:15 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
02:45:15 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
02:45:16 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:45:16 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
