This is ACP version 8.1 (build 2, Product Version 8.1.1)
Licensed to Arne Henden
02:47:10 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
02:47:10 Custom image file path/names are in use
02:47:10   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
02:47:10 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
02:47:11 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
02:47:14 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
02:47:14 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
02:47:14 Dome is MaxDome
02:47:14 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
02:47:14 Imager is QSI Universal
02:47:14 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:47:14 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20180929@024445 UTC
02:47:14 Imager readout modes:
02:47:14   0 is Image Quality
02:47:14 Autoguiding is disabled
02:47:14 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
02:47:24 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
02:47:24 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
02:47:24 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
02:47:24 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
02:47:24 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
02:47:24 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
