02:05:35 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
02:05:35 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220206@015448 UTC
02:05:35 Imager readout modes:
02:05:35   0 is Fast
02:05:35   1 is Normal
02:05:35 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:05:35 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:05:35 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
