This is ACP version 8.1 (build 2, Product Version 8.1.1)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:28:17 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
02:28:17 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:28:17   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
02:28:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:28:19 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
02:28:21 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:28:21 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
02:28:21 Dome is MaxDome
02:28:21 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
02:28:21 Imager is QSI Universal
02:28:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:28:21 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20180909@022549 UTC
02:28:21 Imager readout modes:
02:28:21   0 is Image Quality
02:28:21 Autoguiding is disabled
02:28:21 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:28:33 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
02:28:33 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
02:28:33 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:28:33 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:28:33 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:28:33 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
