07:48:34 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
07:48:35 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
07:48:35 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
07:48:35 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
07:48:36 Dome is MaxDome
07:48:36 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
07:48:36 Imager is QSI Universal
07:48:36 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
07:48:36 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20181004@074245 UTC
07:48:36 Imager readout modes:
07:48:36   0 is Image Quality
07:48:36 Autoguiding is disabled
07:48:36 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
07:48:46 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
07:48:46 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
07:48:46 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
07:48:46 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
07:48:46 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
07:48:46 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
