03:18:59 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220205@031726 UTC
03:18:59 Imager readout modes:
03:18:59   0 is Fast
03:18:59   1 is Normal
03:18:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
03:18:59 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
03:18:59 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
