This is ACP version 8.1 (build 2, Product Version 8.1.1)
Licensed to Arne Henden
03:42:24 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
03:42:24 Custom image file path/names are in use
03:42:24   [PreFlip=300 PostFlip=120 AF=180 PU=60]
03:42:24 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
03:42:25 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
03:42:26 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
03:42:26 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
03:42:26 Dome is MaxDome
03:42:27 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
03:42:27 Imager is QSI Universal
03:42:27 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:42:27 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20190208@033740 UTC
03:42:27 Imager readout modes:
03:42:27   0 is Image Quality
03:42:27 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:42:27 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
03:42:27 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
03:42:27 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:42:37 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
03:42:37 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
03:42:37 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
03:42:37 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
03:42:37 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
03:42:37 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
