02:03:59 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220209@015759 UTC
02:03:59 Imager readout modes:
02:03:59   0 is Fast
02:03:59   1 is Normal
02:03:59 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
02:03:59 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
02:03:59 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
