07:07:03 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220208@070428 UTC
07:07:03 Imager readout modes:
07:07:03   0 is Fast
07:07:03   1 is Normal
07:07:03 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
07:07:03 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
07:07:03 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
