Licensed to Arne Henden
02:14:17 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
02:14:17 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:14:17   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
02:14:17 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:14:18 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
02:14:18 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:14:18 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
02:14:18 Dome is MaxDome
02:14:18 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
02:14:18 Imager is QSI Universal
02:14:18 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:14:18 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20180919@021141 UTC
02:14:18 Imager readout modes:
02:14:18   0 is Image Quality
02:14:18 Autoguiding is disabled
02:14:18 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:14:28 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
02:14:28 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
02:14:28 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:14:28 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:14:28 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:14:28 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
