06:07:31 This is AcquireScheduler V8.1.0
06:07:31 Custom image file path/names are in use

06:07:31 Hardware GEM pier side reporting is available.
06:07:32 Initializing AcquireSupport V8.1.1
06:07:32 Weather safe, server is Boltwood Cloud Sensor II
06:07:32 Telescope is ACP->ACP->TMO61, driver V3
06:07:32 Dome is MaxDome
06:07:32 MaxIm DL is version 5.24
06:07:32 Imager is QSI Universal
06:07:32 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:07:32 Selecting filter B from previous ACP run at 20190227@060652 UTC
06:07:32 Imager readout modes:
06:07:32   0 is Image Quality
06:07:32 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:07:32 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
06:07:32 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
06:07:32 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:07:43 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.33 V = 0.33
06:07:43 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 18.4 V = 13.8
06:07:43 Plate solving With GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
06:07:43 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
06:07:43 All-sky plate solving will be attempted when needed
06:07:43 All-sky service at nova.astrometry.net will be used
