05:57:32 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
05:57:34 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
05:57:36 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II

05:57:37 Dome is MaxDome
05:57:37 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
05:57:37 Imager is QSI Universal
05:57:37 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
05:57:37 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20180913@055225 UTC
05:57:37 Imager readout modes:
05:57:37   0 is Image Quality
05:57:37 Autoguiding is disabled
05:57:37 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
05:57:47 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
05:57:47 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
05:57:47 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
05:57:47 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
05:57:47 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
05:57:47 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
