08:43:14 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
08:43:15 Initializing AcquireSupport V9.2.4
08:43:15 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
08:43:15 Telescope is ACP->TM61, driver V3
08:43:15 Dome is MaxDome
08:43:15 MaxIm DL is version 6.28
08:43:15 Imager is ASCOM
08:43:15 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:43:15 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20250610@084233 UTC
08:43:15 Imager readout modes:
08:43:15   0 is Fast
08:43:15   1 is Normal
08:43:15 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:43:15 Guider plate scale is 0.2 arcsec/pix. Guided dither with main imager pixels
08:43:16 Max unguided exposure 59 sec.
08:43:16 Guider is set to multi-star mode
08:43:16 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:43:23 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.23 V = 0.23
08:43:23 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 36.3 V = 24.3
08:43:23 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:43:23 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
