03:58:30 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
03:58:30 Selecting filter SG from previous ACP run at 20210626@035632 UTC
03:58:30 Imager readout modes:
03:58:30   0 is Fast

03:58:30 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
03:58:30 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
03:58:30 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
03:58:35 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
