09:51:43 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
09:51:43 Selecting filter SR from previous ACP run at 20220325@094903 UTC
09:51:43 Imager readout modes:
09:51:43   0 is Fast
09:51:43   1 is Normal
09:51:43 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
09:51:43 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
09:51:43 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
09:51:43 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
09:51:48 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
09:51:48 Calculated field of view (arcmin): H = 35.8 V = 24.0
09:51:48 Plate solving with GSC 1.1 (ok for wider fields)
