Licensed to Arne Henden
04:16:35 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
04:16:35 Custom image file path/names are in use
04:16:35   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
04:16:35 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
04:16:36 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
04:16:37 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
04:16:37 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
04:16:37 Dome is MaxDome
04:16:37 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
04:16:37 Imager is QSI Universal
04:16:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
04:16:37 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20190127@041237 UTC
04:16:38 Imager readout modes:
04:16:38   0 is Image Quality
04:16:38 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
04:16:38 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
04:16:38 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
04:16:38 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
04:16:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
04:16:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
04:16:48 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
04:16:48 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
04:16:48 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
04:16:48 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
