11:33:16 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
11:33:16 Selecting filter I from previous ACP run at 20210117@113029 UTC
11:33:16 Imager readout modes:
11:33:16   0 is Image Quality
11:33:16 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
11:33:16 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
11:33:16 Max unguided exposure 60 sec.
11:33:16 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
11:33:21 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.32 V = 0.32
11:33:21 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 17.8 V = 13.4
11:33:21 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
11:33:21 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
