11:14:19 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
11:14:20 Custom image file path/names are in use
11:14:20   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
11:14:20 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
11:14:21 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
11:14:21 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
11:14:21 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
11:14:22 Dome is MaxDome
11:14:22 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
11:14:22 Imager is QSI Universal
11:14:22 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:14:22 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20190330@110401 UTC
11:14:22 Imager readout modes:
11:14:22   0 is Image Quality
11:14:22 Autoguiding is disabled
11:14:22 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:14:32 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
11:14:32 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
11:14:32 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:14:32 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
11:14:32 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
11:14:32 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
