09:40:44 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220214@093522 UTC
09:40:44 Imager readout modes:
09:40:44   0 is Fast
09:40:44   1 is Normal
09:40:44 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:40:44 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
09:40:44 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
09:40:44 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:40:49 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
