08:55:21 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:55:21 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220205@085453 UTC
08:55:21 Imager readout modes:
08:55:21   0 is Fast
08:55:21   1 is Normal
08:55:21 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:55:21 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
08:55:21 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
