06:04:50 MaxIm DL is version 6.26
06:04:50 Imager is ASCOM
06:04:50 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:04:50 Selecting filter V from previous ACP run at 20220316@060324 UTC
06:04:50 Imager readout modes:
06:04:50   0 is Fast
06:04:50   1 is Normal
06:04:50 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:04:50 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
06:04:50 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
