12:50:09 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
12:50:09 Custom image file path/names are in use

12:50:09 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
12:50:11 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
12:50:11 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
12:50:11 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
12:50:12 Dome is MaxDome
12:50:12 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
12:50:12 Imager is QSI Universal
12:50:12 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
12:50:12 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20190127@123222 UTC
12:50:12 Imager readout modes:
12:50:12   0 is Image Quality
12:50:12 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
12:50:12 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
12:50:12 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
12:50:12 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
12:50:22 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
12:50:22 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
12:50:22 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
12:50:22 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
12:50:22 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
12:50:22 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
