06:41:01 Using focus offsets and star mags from FilterInfo.txt
06:41:01 Selecting filter SI from previous ACP run at 20220415@063042 UTC
06:41:02 Imager readout modes:
06:41:02   0 is Fast
06:41:02   1 is Normal
06:41:02 Guider is SX Universal (no rotator)
06:41:02 Guider plate scale unknown, guided dither with guider pixels
06:41:02 Max unguided exposure 61 sec.
06:41:02 (assuring that FocusMax is running now...)
06:41:07 Calculated unbinned plate scales (arcsec/pix): H = 0.22 V = 0.22
