08:23:05 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
08:23:05 Selecting filter R from previous ACP run at 20220316@082230 UTC
08:23:05 Imager readout modes:
08:23:05   0 is Fast
08:23:05   1 is Normal
08:23:05 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
08:23:05 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
08:23:05 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
08:23:05 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
08:23:10 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
08:23:10 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
08:23:10 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
08:23:10 Mount supports tracking rate offsets
