09:26:07 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:26:07 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220208@091221 UTC
09:26:07 Imager readout modes:
09:26:07   0 is Fast
09:26:07   1 is Normal
09:26:07 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:26:07 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
09:26:07 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
09:26:07 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:26:12 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
09:26:12 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0

09:27:33   Solved! 78 stars matched.
09:27:33   Average residual is 0.2 arcsec.
09:27:33   Pointing error is 2.665 arcmin @ angle 67.65

09:27:33   [sync] pointing model updated
09:27:33   Within max error tolerance, no re-slew needed.
09:27:33   Target is now centered.
