02:21:42 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
02:21:42 Custom image file path/names are in use

02:21:42 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:21:43 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
02:21:44 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:21:44 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
02:21:44 Dome is MaxDome
02:21:44 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
02:21:44 Imager is QSI Universal
02:21:44 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:21:44 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20180914@021905 UTC
02:21:44 Imager readout modes:
02:21:44   0 is Image Quality
02:21:44 Autoguiding is disabled
02:21:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:21:54 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
02:21:54 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
02:21:54 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:21:54 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:21:54 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:21:54 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
