11:15:05 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:15:07 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
11:15:07 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:15:07 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
11:15:07 Dome is MaxDome
11:15:07 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
11:15:07 Imager is QSI Universal
11:15:07 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:15:07 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20181011@111038 UTC
11:15:07 Imager readout modes:
11:15:07   0 is Image Quality
11:15:07 Autoguiding is disabled
11:15:07 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:15:17 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
11:15:17 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
11:15:17 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:15:17 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:15:17 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
11:15:17 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
