10:31:32 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
10:31:32 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
10:31:32 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
10:31:33 Dome is MaxDome
10:31:33 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
10:31:33 Imager is QSI Universal
10:31:33 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt

10:31:43 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
10:31:43 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
10:31:43 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
10:31:43 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
10:31:43 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
